Despite strong start, Boston’s thin frontcourt and bench need work; what can they do?

The team’s great start masks a few weak spots still in need of attention.

At present, the Boston Celtics truly look like the contender many expected of them ahead of the 2023-24 season and the blockbuster trades the team made in the NBA’s 2023 offseason, owners of a three-game winning streak to start their next run at a title off right.

But not everything is perfect, with the ball club’s frontcourt rotation thinner than many would like to see it be, and the team’s bench relatively thin in terms of impact players. At the same time, the Celtics are now a second apron team with all that entails in terms of the restrictions it places on the front office in terms of team building. So what is on the table, and what can Boston no longer do to get better?

The hosts of the CLNS Media “Celtics Lab” podcast sat down to talk this over with HoopsHype cap expert Yossi Gozlan on a recent episode.
