New Celtics owner Bill Chisholm expressed a strong desire to win championships and maintain the team's competitive edge during an interview with NBC Sports Boston. He acknowledged the potential challenges posed by the Celtics' hefty payroll, which exceeds $500 million when including luxury tax penalties. With a stacked roster, Chisholm emphasized the importance of staying competitive to maximize the prime years of key players Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown, despite the potential financial implications of keeping the team intact for future seasons.
I want to raise banners. I want to raise them now, and I want to raise them in the future as well.
This is the best franchise in any sport, for me, anywhere in the world. It's just an incredible team and the legacy that comes with that.
Keeping this roster intact in 2025-26 and beyond offers Boston its best chance of securing multiple titles during both Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown's prime years.
Chisholm and Boston's new ownership is set to inherit a stacked roster viewed as one of the favorites to win the title in June.
