The Boston Celtics are doing everything they can under the confines of the new collective bargaining agreement to position themselves for dominance when Jayson Tatum returns. Jordan Walsh is doing all the right things to make the jump to a role player with consistent minutes, and meanwhile, can Jaylen Brown return to his former all-NA heights this year? Plus, Neemius Queta is flashing an outside game, and the NBA salary cap increase might just help the Celtics.
