==Television and radio== {{Main|List of Boston Celtics broadcasters}} [[NBC Sports Boston]] is the Boston Celtics' main television outlet, having aired its games since 1981 when the station was known as PRISM New England. In 1983, it rebranded as SportsChannel New England. Like all the other SportsChannel networks, the New England channel was rebranded as [[Fox Sports Net|Fox Sports]] New England when former owner [[Cablevision]] entered into a partnership with [[Liberty Media]] and [[News Corporation (1980β2013)|News Corporation]] in 1998. Comcast purchased Cablevision's original network stake in 2001, then acquired the remaining stake in what was now [[Fox Sports Networks|FSN]] New England in 2007 and rebranded the network as Comcast SportsNet New England. In 2017, all CSN networks (including CSN New England) were renamed as [[NBC Sports Regional Networks]] in reference to Comcast's current ownership of [[NBCUniversal]]. As of the 2024β25 season, Drew Carter serves as the television play-by-play announcer with [[Brian Scalabrine]] as an analyst. All Celtics games are heard on radio through [[Beasley Broadcast Group]]'s [[WBZ-FM]] (98.5, otherwise branded as "The Sports Hub"), with play-by-play from [[Sean Grande]] and color commentary from [[Cedric Maxwell]], a deal in place since the 2013β14 season.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://boston.cbslocal.com/2013/09/26/boston-celtics-98-5-the-sports-hub-announce-multi-year-broadcast-partnership/ |title=Celtics, 98.5 The Sports Hub Announce Multi-Year Broadcast Partnership Β« CBS Boston |publisher=Boston.cbslocal.com |date=September 26, 2013 |access-date=October 25, 2013 |archive-date=October 29, 2013 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20131029192727/http://boston.cbslocal.com/2013/09/26/boston-celtics-98-5-the-sports-hub-announce-multi-year-broadcast-partnership/ |url-status=live }}</ref> It is carried on stations in 5 of the 6 New England States via the [[Boston Celtics Radio Network]].
