TD Garden was the place to be as the Celtics kicked off their 2024-25 season with a bang. The team raised their 18th championship banner and received their rings in a pregame ceremony. The night was extra special because it marked their first title since 2008. Fans were thrilled to see the entire "Big Three" from that winning team: Paul Pierce, Kevin Garnett, and Ray Allen. Alongside them were other legends like Brian Scalabrine and Bob Cousy, who won his first championship in 1957 and has six titles under his belt.

Bob Cousy, now 96, was honored with a championship ring by Celtics lead owner Wyc Grousbeck, recognizing his significant role in the team's success. The night wasn't just about basketball stars; celebrities and athletes from different fields also joined the festivities. Names like Donnie Wahlberg, 21 Savage, and A$AP Ferg added to the glitz and glamour.

The event brought together the past and present of the Celtics, creating an unforgettable experience for fans and players alike. As the Celtics faced off against the New York Knicks, the atmosphere was electric, celebrating a new era while honoring their storied history.
