What To Expect in HBO’s Celtics City Docuseries

Aside from diving deep into the legacy of the Boston Celtics, the nine-episode docuseries is also expected to provide a detailed exploration of the team's rivalries with some of the NBA's best over the years.

Some of the stories that will take center stage are the team's always game-changing riff with the Los Angeles Lakers (a team whose Showtime era in the 1980s is examined in Max's Winning Time Season 2) and the eventful clashes with their division rivals, the Philadelphia 76ers. 

Celtics City is also set to honor the legends who paved the way in creating the strong and incredible legacy of the Boston Celtics, which includes the likes of Bill Russell, Bob Cousy, Red Auerbach, Larry Bird, Paul Pierce, and Kevin Garnett. 

Given that the Celtics are the winningest team in the NBA, Celtics City will also examine past and present players' reflection on the weight and the high expectations that come along whenever one wears a Boston Celtics jersey.  

In the modern times, a good chunk of its focus will explore the new era of Celtics basketball led by Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown as they cement their legacy after winning the team's 18th Championship in the 2024 NBA Finals. 


Celtics City Episode 1 is now streaming on Max.

Netflix also has another basketball-centric docuseries called Court of Gold which chronicled the journey of men's basketball teams in the 2024 Olympics (read more about it here).
