The Boston Celtics, a historic NBA franchise, are on the verge of a significant sale as the Grousbeck family has decided to put the team up for bids. With their recent championship win, the Celtics have solidified their status as a valuable asset in the sports world. As they aim for back-to-back titles, the potential sale raises questions about the motivations behind the Grousbecks' decision, especially given the high expenses associated with their current roster.

The Celtics have one of the priciest lineups in the league, with total cap allocations exceeding $202 million, ranking fourth in the NBA. Key players Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown are tied to substantial contracts, which could be a factor in the ownership transition.
