The Boston Celtics had a huge offseason, inking Jaylen Brown to the largest extension in NBA history but also trading Marcus Smart who had been the beating heart of this team for the past few seasons. Kristaps Porzingis was the prize in the Smart trade and the Celtics roster is still loaded and top-heavy, with legitimate championship aspirations.

The Celtics don't necessarily have a national, coast-to-coast fanbase but as the only NBA team in New England they cover a large geographic area as the only show across six states and parts of Northern New York.

Many of those areas don't have coverage of Celtics games on local cable packages but are still within the blackout area for NBA League Pass — making the only options for following the team VPN trickery or radio broadcasts for games that aren't on national television.

The Sports Hub, 98.5 FM, is the official radio station of the Celtics but you can find the broadcasts on nearly three dozen different stations around New England depending on where you live. If there is not a broadcast station in your area, you can listen live through your web browser or by downloading The Sports Hub app in the Apple or Google Play stores.

The Celtics' radio broadcast team will be familiar to many fans — Sean Grande and Cedric Maxwell have been together for nearly two decades and will be back announcing games this season.
