The 2025 NBA trade deadline has come and gone, and for the most part, the Boston Celtics stood pat. That certainly wasn't true for the rest of the league, as a plethora of big blockbuster trades were made. And while the C's weren't directly involved in those deals, the ever-changing makeup of the league could have a big impact on them.

The Boston Celtics are adding free agent Torrey Craig, according to ESPN's Shams Charania. The 34-year-old forward will give Boston a bit of depth on the wing after being waived by the Chicago Bulls in the aftermath of a larger Zach LaVine trade earlier this week.

The Boston Celtics surely won't be the NBA's most active team leading up to Thursday's 3 p.m. ET trade deadline. However, they can't just sit out

The Boston Celtics fell to the Dallas Mavericks, a rematch of the 2025 finals that saw the Celtics capture a coveted 18th NBA title. With the 127-120 loss, Boston's win streak ends at four games. The Celtics never really locked in for this one.

LeBron James joined NBA icon Michael Jordan as the only players to score 40 points in a game at the age of 40, pouring in 42 on Thursday as the Los Angeles Lakers held off the Golden State Warriors 120-112.

The Celtics are 9-1 against the Mavericks in their past 10 games, the only loss coming in Game 4 of the NBA Finals last season.

Holiday is listed as out on the Celtics injury report with right shoulder impingement. He was originally questionable ahead of the Mavericks loss Thursday before being downgraded to out. This time, he’s listed as out to start as opposed to a questionable designation.

Whether or not the Brow suits up for his new ball club, Boston would do well to try to keep their guard up for this contest.
