The Boston Celtics had recently suspended head coach Ime Udoka for one year after allegations of violation of team policies. This was a huge shock to fans around the world. Especially the Celtics fans who had high expectations for the upcoming season. After starting the last season slowly, they made huge strides. They finished the regular season as the #2 seed in the Eastern Conference with a record of 51-31, behind the Miami Heat. Then the expectations for them grew. However, they exceeded expectations with their performances in the playoffs.

In the first round, they comfortably swept Kevin Durant, Kyrie Irving, and the Brooklyn Nets. The Celtics not just beat the Nets, but they dismantled them. Then they went toe to toe with former champion Giannis Antetokounmpo and the Milwaukee Bucks. Finally, they came out on top winning the series, 4-3.

The Celtics then faced the #1-seeded Heat in the Eastern Conference Finals. It was a great matchup as both teams excelled in defense. However, the Celtics passed the test with flying colors as they beat the Heat 4-3.

Ime Udoka might not return to the Celtics

Even though the Celtics became better as the season went by, not many expected to reach the finals. Especially with Udoka who was a rookie head coach. But they surprised everyone as they reached the finals for the first time in 12 years. He was even considered for the coach of the year award. However, they were no match for the Golden State Warriors who won the title with a game to spare. Despite the loss, there was huge anticipation for the upcoming season from the fans.

Now, there are reports claiming that Ime Udoka might not return as the head coach of the Celtics after the one-year suspension. This has come as a huge blow for the Celtics fans who shared their opinion about the rumor on Twitter.
