Boston Celtics expected to move G-League coach to new role (report)
Maine Celtics coach Tyler Lashbrook is expected to move to a new role within the Celtics organization for next season according to a new report from Michael Scotto of Hoopshype.
Lashbrook joined the Celtics organization before the 2023-24 season as a player development coach before being named Maine Celtics coach before last season. He has also spent time with the Philadelphia 76ers during his coaching career before joining Boston.

Scotto reported last week that the Celtics are expected to name former NBA point guard Phil Pressey as the new coach of the Maine Celtics later this summer with Lashbrook moving to a new role.
Pressey has been a player enhancement coach in Boston for two years following the conclusion of his pro career. He played for two seasons in Boston under team president of basketball operations Brad Stevens at the start of his NBA career.
Lashbrook led the Maine Celtics to a 21-13 record in G-League play last year with several pro contributors spending time in Maine including Baylor Scheierman, JD Davison and Boston's two-way players. Maine advanced to the Conference Finals in the G-League playoffs before falling to the Osceola Magic on the road.
