Three bold predictions for the 2026 Celtics

The Boston Celtics will have a revamped team heading into the 2026 season. With the losses of Jrue Holiday, Kristaps Porzingis, Luke Kornet, and Jayson Tatum, nobody truly knows what to expect. It is anyone's guess as to how the roster will fit together with such drastic changes, making this upcoming season all the more interesting. Here are 3 bold predictions for the 2026 Boston Celtics.

The first prediction is that Payton Pritchard will average over 20 points per game. We saw Pritchard take a huge leap in 2025, increasing his minutes, scoring, and efficiency, which won him the 6th-man of the year award.
