Boston’s preseason pace is no joke — literally
The Celtics opened the 2025–26 preseason with a lively 121–103 win in Memphis. Jaylen Brown dropped 21 in 20 minutes, while Derrick White tallied 16 points and 10 assists. Boston’s tempo was so quick, the Grizzlies might still be waiting for their first subway stop.
Coach Mazzulla’s rotation clicked early, rookies shone confidently, and eleven players scored as Boston’s new look impressed. Next up: a visit to Toronto on Friday before the home stand and the regular-season tip‑off on October 22 versus Philadelphia.
