How concerned should the Boston Celtics be with their depth this season?

It’s not hard to see why some analysts are getting nervous about the ball club’s ability to stay healthy.

[anyclip pubname=”2123″ widgetname=”0016M00002U0B1kQAF_M8170″]

The Boston Celtics face concerns about their depth due to Kristaps Porzingis‘ plantar fasciitis after his decision not to participate in the 2023 FIBA World Cup. In the team’s frontcourt, big man Robert Williams III has not exactly been the healthiest player on Boston’s roster in recent seasons, and veteran forward Al Horford is older than the team’s head coach. You can see why some are a bit worried.

Add in that we still aren’t sure what’s going on with 2023 Sixth Man of the Year Malcolm Brogdon’s tendon injury, and it is not hard to see why some analysts are getting nervous about the club’s ability to stay healthy.

The hosts of ESPN’s “NBA Today” show recently got together to talk over Boston’s potential depth issues on a recent episode.

NBA expansion might not be too far off — what would it look like?

A pair of teams — or maybe more — could be added to the NBA in the next half-decade or so.

The Boston Celtics will likely have two new teams to play against in the medium-term future with NBA expansion rumbles starting to heat up. During the pandemic, it looked as if there might be new teams joining the league even sooner, but NBA commissioner Adam Silver made it clear a new collective bargaining agreement and media rights deal would need to be secured ahead of adding teams to the Association.

But now the league has a new CBA in hand, and it will soon tackle the media rights deal. That means a pair of teams — or maybe more — could be added to the NBA in the next half-decade or so.

Seattle seems a shoo-in, and Las Vegas, Nevada, seems very likely. Soon after this summer’s 2023 Las Vegas Summer League, NBA.com’s Mark Medina sat down with the hosts of the “Herd with Colin Cowherd” show to talk about what expansion would look like.

Check out the clip embedded above to hear what he had to say about adding Seattle and Sin City to the NBA.

Are the Boston Celtics going to need to put Kristaps Porzingis in bubble wrap?

Sidelined for at least four to six weeks, Celtics fans are understandably worried about how the Porzingis experiment is going to go for the team.

[anyclip pubname=”2123″ widgetname=”0016M00002U0B1kQAF_M8170″]

The Boston Celtics and star big man Kristaps Porzingis have tied their fates together. The latter’s sketchy injury history is already sending shivers down the spine of Celtics fans. Boston traded for and extended the Latvian center near the start of the NBA’s 2023 offseason, only to see Porzingis miss the 2023 FIBA World Cup with plantar fasciitis.

Sidelined for at least four to six weeks, Celtics fans are understandably worried about how the Porzingis experiment is going to go for the team this season — and for the rest of his contract extension, for that matter.

The host of the CLNS Media “Winning Plays” podcast, Brian Robb, linked up with 98.5 The Sports Hub’s Tim McKone to talk over the bumpy start of the Porzingis era and what could be coming for Boston with an injury-prone star on the team.

Four potential Celtics depth options to shore up Boston’s frontcourt

With Kristaps Porzingis already showing signs of poor durability, another big man option is a wise target for the Celtics.

The Boston Celtics are facing a potential frontcourt availability concern as new Boston big man Kristaps Porzingis enters a rehabilitation process for his foot, recently diagnosed with plantar fasciitis serious enough to cause the Latvian center to eschew suiting up for his national team in the 2023 FIBA World Cup. Although the Celtics center is expected to be cleared for the start of the storied ball club’s 2023-24 training camp,

Porzingis’ injury history, including playing less than 65 games in the regular season in recent years, raises questions about his availability for a full 82-game season in Boston’s campaign to come. Considering the team’s other factors, such as veteran forward Al Horford’s age and Robert Williams III’s frequent absences to injury as well, it’s prudent for the Celtics to consider front-court additions.

To such an end, NESN’s Keagan Stiefel came up with four potential options that the Celtics can sign to shore up their frontcourt depth – let’s take a look at each.
