The Boston Celtics’ starting five for the 2023–24 NBA season is being talked about as one of the best in the league. It includes All-NBA forwards Jaylen Brown and Jayson Tatum, star big man Kristaps Porzingis, and experienced guards Jrue Holiday and Derrick White.
Tatum has the makings of an MVP candidate, White has surprised everyone by standing out, and Holiday, while not quite at his best yet, is a steady playmaker and defender who should score more as the season goes on. The Celtics are looking for guys to step up on the bench because the starting five has been so good.
Even though the Celtics have a pretty good schedule coming up, the team’s success will depend on how healthy its players are and how well it can find a sixth player. What should the league think about this Boston team? The people who run the YouTube program “Backyard Buckets” think so. Watch the video above to see why.
