Mazzulla’s rookie season as head coach makes history, earning the second-highest win total for a first-year Celtics coach with 57 wins.
Mazzulla took over the reigns as head coach after Ime Udoka was suspended for the 2022-23 season. Mazzulla was eventually named full-time head coach in February after a good start. Mazzulla coached Team Giannis in the NBA All-Star Game as well.
Mazzulla will make his NBA coaching playoff debut this Saturday, facing the 7-seed of the play-in series.
