Joe Mazzulla just secured a multi-year extension, but is this a sign of long-term trust or a risky move during a transitional year for the Celtics? With Jayson Tatum out indefinitely and key players like Porziņģis, Holiday, and Kornet no longer on the roster, we dig into what this deal says about Boston’s direction and whether Mazzulla has truly earned the keys to the franchise. We also react to the decision to waive Miles Norris and evaluate the current two-way contract group. Plus, we kick off our Southwest Division preview with the Pelicans and Spurs. Is Zion finally ready for a full season, and could Wembanyama leap into MVP talks? All that and more on Hold My Banner, hosted by Kasey Hudson and Ountae Campbell.
