Key Highlights From Celtics Schedule…
The 2025-26 NBA season is just around the corner, and the Boston Celtics’ schedule is out! On August 14, the NBA let us peek into the calendar chaos awaiting every team. And surprise, surprise, the only schedule in the universe of consequence is Boston’s. If you haven’t had the chance to drool over it yet, they posted it on Twitter yesterday. The Celtics are set to tango through 13 back-to-backs this season, traveling nearly 44,000 miles—that’s practically the entire length of my phone bill! They’ll get a full All-Star break week to take a short nap, but surprisingly, there won’t be any Celtics vs. Lakers drama during rivalry week. And if you want to see Jayson Tatum’s return on the court, it might happen during games that offer the intensity of a pillow fight.
Hold on to your seats because the season opens with a stretch harder than trying to convince a cat to take a bath. The Celtics take on some daring opponents: the Sixers on opening night, followed by the Knicks, Pistons, and more. Given the tough competition, starting with a 3-5 record might be the best the fans can hope for, much like expecting a raccoon to keep a clean trash can. But worry not—as December unfolds, Boston faces its season-defining period, where games come thick and fast. From December 26 to January 26, they’ll battle through a maze of road games and home stands, all while attempting to figure out if the team’s rotations have more swings than a playground in spring.
