The Celtics will play in Group B in the Eastern Conference with four matchups (two home, two away) coming as part of their regular season schedule. Boston will also be in the first NBA matchup televised on Amazon Prime on Oct. 24 when they face off against the Knicks at Madison Square Garden during opening week.

The St. Louis native of course will miss most if not all of next season as he recuperates from a torn Achilles tendon injury.

Since the beginning of the offseason, the Celtics have been in seemingly every rumor imaginable. After trading Jrue Holiday and Kristaps Porzingis leading up to the draft, it was clear that Boston was ready to undergo some serious changes this summer.
