The Boston Celtics are poised to be a top contender in the Eastern Conference this upcoming season. Despite their talent, the team is one injury away from jeopardizing their standing, and this risk is prevalent for all teams. However, the Celtics' core, including Jaylen Brown and Derek White, is expected to exceed expectations.

Payton Pritchard, given increased opportunities, could emerge as a star with all-star caliber numbers, especially when Jason Tatum is off the floor. Meanwhile, Derek White has consistently improved every season, and fans should watch for possible breakout performances. A fun season awaits for Celtics' supporters.
