Description
The Boston Celtics are NBA champions! For more than a decade, the Boston Celtics' perpetual promise was met with repeated disappointment. That all changed in 2024 with a resilient and remarkable group that dominated in historic fashion, burnished the city's legacy, and finally earned the elusive Banner 18. Featuring outstanding coverage from John Karalis alongside dynamic action photography, Built Different: The Boston Celtics' Historic Run to the 2024 NBA Championship captures the full journey - from blockbuster trades that brought Kristaps Porzingis and Jrue Holiday into the fold, to an NBA-best regular season, all the way through the decisive triumph over the Dallas Mavericks. This commemorative edition also includes stories on Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, Al Horford, and other favorites, and is a must-have keepsake for fans of this championship squad.
