NBA basketball team season
NBA professional basketball team season
The 2019–20 Boston Celtics season was the 74th season of the franchise in the National Basketball Association (NBA). This was the team's seventh season under head coach Brad Stevens .
After losing Kyrie Irving and Al Horford to free agency, the Celtics signed former Charlotte Hornets All-Star Kemba Walker and former New York Knicks and Portland Trail Blazers center Enes Kanter in the offseason. The season was suspended by league officials following the games of March 11[ 1] due to the COVID-19 pandemic.[ 2] On March 19, Marcus Smart announced that he tested positive for COVID-19.[ 3]
On June 4, the Celtics were one of 22 teams invited to the NBA Bubble . In the first round of the NBA playoffs, the Celtics defeated the No. 6 seeded Philadelphia 76ers in four games. The team defeated the No. 2 seeded and NBA champion Toronto Raptors in seven games in the Eastern Conference Semifinals. However, the Celtics lost to the fifth-seeded Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals in six games.
Draft picks
The Boston Celtics hold 3 first round picks and a second round pick for the 2019 NBA Draft. The 14th pick was transferred from the Sacramento Kings as it failed to reach the 1st pick.[ 4]
