The Celtics will welcome a pair of departed starters back to Boston in back-to-back games in late January. Jrue Holiday and the Portland Trail Blazers will come to town on Monday, Jan. 26, with Kristaps Porzingis and the Atlanta Hawks following suit on Wednesday, Jan. 28.

The 2025-26 NBA schedule was unveiled on Thursday with all 82 games for the Celtics locked in amid a retooling season. It will be a year of change for Boston with Jayson Tatum sidelined and four rotation players departed via trade or free agency.

The Boston Celtics enter a transitional season and are not expected to be anywhere close to where they were last campaign.
