It's a party in the city of Boston.
The Boston Celtics defeated the Dallas Mavericks in five games of the 2024 NBA Finals to secure their 18th title in franchise history -- and first since 2008. Jaylen Brown was named Finals MVP after averaging 20.8 points, 5.4 rebounds and five assists in the series.
Brown and forward Jayson Tatum are the longest tenured players on the roster since being drafted in 2016 and 2017, respectively. They made it to the 2022 NBA Finals, where they lost to the Golden State Warriors, but secured a title two seasons later.
"It's unbelievable. It still doesn't seem true. But just trying to stay in the moment," Tatum said during the pre-parade rally.
Boston's parade began in front of TD Garden and concluded on Boylston Street.
Here are some of the best moments from the Celtics championship parade.
