Despite earning the number one seed in the Eastern Conference, and a trip to the Eastern Conference Finals, the Boston Celtics will only have six returning pieces from the 2016-2017 roster.
Isaiah Thomas, Al Horford, Jae Crowder, Marcus Smart, Jaylen Brown, and Terry Rozier are the only players left from last season. This means that a lot of new faces will be suiting up in green next year.
The biggest splash was made with Gordon Hayward, who will be inserted into the starting lineup immediately.
