ESPN panel picks Boston Celtics to finish first in NBA’s East for 2023-24

The Boston Celtics are considered the top contenders in the NBA’s Eastern Conference for the upcoming 2023-24 season, based on predictions from an expert ESPN panel. “The Celtics and the Bucks sit atop this season’s Summer Forecast rankings once again, as both teams are coming off a strong 2022-23 campaign and return a healthy core,” wrote ESPN.
