- Celtics have won a record 18 championships
Bill Chisholm, the founder of private equity firm Symphony Technology Group, has agreed a deal to buy the Boston Celtics for $6.1bn, according to ESPN.
The deal would be a record sum for a US sports franchise: a group led by Josh Harris and Mitchell Rales bought the NFL’s Washington Commanders for $6.05bn in 2023.
