It’s with sadness that we offer up an RIP for Dan Ventura, the true patron saint of Massachusetts high school sports. A relentless worker and a great friend. One last 🥃 from that New Orleans bar during Super Bowl week, 2002.

Hang in there, Chris. Prayers for you and your family. 🙏🙏🙏

My prognosis is encouraging, and, hopefully, I'll see you on the flip side. Then you can resume sharing how misguided you feel I am in some of the views I express in the Boston Globe, on 98.5 The Sports Hub, and NBC Sports Boston.😀 I’m really looking forward to that normalcy.✌🏽

1. WR 2. 3. 4. SAF 5. It’s going to be an incredibly competitive camp in Foxboro. bostonherald.com/2023/07/24/…
#Patriots training camp starts in 2 days. Here are the top 5 position battles to follow in Foxboro, starting with Kendrick Bourne, Tyquan Thornton and a crowded WR room: bostonherald.com/2023/07/24/…

My uncle’s comments were hurtful and wrong. I unequivocally condemn what he said.

To the Celtics, the city and my brothers: Thank you for your belief in me and support through all of our seasons of basketball and life. I’m beyond grateful to have been a part of this organization & will forever have love for the people that surrounded me in this experience💚☘️

Marcus Smart relished his role as the “longest tenured Celtic.” Truly sad he didn’t get to win a title here. Curious how this team will resurrect its defensive identity without its best, most voracious stopper.

Celtics are not messing around with their coaching staff. Now two experienced assistants join Joe Mazzulla with the additions of Sam Cassell and Charles Lee.
Charles Lee is finalizing a deal to join the Boston Celtics as the lead assistant coach, sources tell ESPN. Lee had been the associate head coach with Milwaukee and a finalist for the Toronto and Detroit head jobs.

The Celtics look hopeless in the Eastern Conference Finals, but are using the 2004 Red Sox as inspiration. trib.al/OXPmSts

In my 44 years of being associated with the NBA I never thought I’d see a Boston Celtics team, a franchise with 17 Championships, quit. I know Celtics fans all over the world must be disgusted and devastated. The Miami Heat blew them out 128-102 in Game 3.
