Bill Chisholm Takes Over Boston Celtics…
Wyc Grousbeck is stepping down as the Boston Celtics’ controlling governor, making headlines faster than a basketball travels from half-court to a live net! When he initially put the team on the market July 1st, 2024, Grousbeck aimed to stick around until the 2027-28 season, even after the sale. But when $6.1 billion rolled into the picture like finding a winning lottery ticket tucked in last year’s coat pocket, new owner Bill Chisholm decided to take the wheel. Chisholm will take full control following NBA’s Board approval, while Grousbeck remains as an alternate governor and CEO until 2028.
According to CelticsBlog alum Keith Smith, this certainly marks the end of Grousbeck’s legendary era with Boston, where the Celtics scooped up two titles quicker than a little sibling grabbing the last slice of pizza! With Chisholm now at the helm, fans are crossing fingers that this next chapter will be a slam dunk. Whether Chisholm’s investors are on board or on roller skates, Celtics enthusiasts eagerly await to see the future of their beloved team.
