At the onset of the 2020-21 season, Boston Celtics were a hot topic. Many people estimated resounding victories for the side, that would ultimately lead them to the title. With the likes of Jayson Tatum and Kemba Walker, we can’t blame anyone for having thought so.

Yet, the roster cut a sorry figure in the end as they finished 7th in the league. Following this, the men in green received a first-round mauling at the hands of the Brooklyn Nets in the playoffs. So how have Ime Udoka and company coped with the hard campaign?

Incoming Players

• Dennis Schroder

After playing a patient game, Boston bought the 27-year-old to fill the void of some huge exits. He will be a relatively experienced addition to the back-court, and has the chance to flourish in the new environment.
