The Boston Celtics are approaching the end of their stretch run, and will start using load management as they maintain a substantial lead in the Eastern Conference standings over the Milwaukee Bucks. And Boston’s substantial depth could mean that they can do so with few games at real risk of being lost as a result.
Boston’s bench is as good as it has been in years thanks to the impact of players like Al Horford, Payton Pritchard, Sam Hauser, and Luke Kornet. Do they finally have enough depth to get the team across the finish line in the 2024 NBA Finals to finally hang Banner 18?
On a recent episode, the hosts of the CLNS Media “Bob Ryan, Jeff Goodman, and Gary Tanguay!” podcast took a moment to talk over how impactful this bench really is. Check it out below!
