Now that the end of the 2021-22 NBA season is nearly upon the Boston Celtics, attention to how the team’s remaining players did during it in terms of their level of play and contribution.16 players are currently on Boston’s roster with varying degrees of responsibility and playing time having been available to them.
How much did they aid (or harm) the success of the Celtics as a whole this season, and how much more could they have realistically done with the opportunities they had in front of them? Such assessments will rise from a trickle to a flood, and dial in on specific players increasingly while we wait for the playoffs to begin in earnest. We’ll do in-depth player grades once the Celtics have truly finished their 2021-22 regular season.
But for now, let’s take a quick and dirty look at what each player did with Boston this season, assigning a letter grade to each.
