Update (8:41 AM) –

The Ringer’s 2022-23 NBA Midseason coach of the year? That’s right, it’s none other than Joe Mazzulla, who has the Celtics at the top of the league.

“No coach—who hasn’t already been fired—stepped into this season with higher expectations under extraordinarily difficult circumstances than Mazzulla. As someone who’s never even been a lead assistant at the NBA level, Mazzulla replaced Ime Udoka on Boston’s sideline and, without Rob Williams III (their third-most important player) for the opening 29 games, helped guide the Celtics to some of the best basketball they’ve played in years.”
