The Boston Celtics have a major update regarding veteran big man Al Horford. Seemingly, the entire offseason has been dominated by rumors of where the 39-year-old center would land, but a key insider reported that a new team has expressed interest in Horford.

Additionally, Jaylen Brown received an unfortunate prediction by an NBA insider. As superstar Jayson Tatum will be out for most of, if not all of, the regular season, Brown has an increased workload and new role as the No. 1 scoring option, but the insider isn't too high on the 2024 Finals MVP without Tatum on the court.

In other news, a Celtics guard is predicted to take a major leap this season. The new-look Celtics still have a few staples from the core of the previous squad, and one of the most exciting bench players on the team will look to take another step in his production heading into his sixth season in the league.
