  • Joey Eovaldi Syracuse University Analysis of Franchise Valuation The
    Joey Eovaldi Syracuse University Analysis of Franchise Valuation The Boston Celtics Franchise is currently valued at 3.1 billion dollars, as of February 2020. In this section, we are going to evaluate what that valuation means and how it has recently changed, due to certain factors. The Boston Celtics were formed on June 6, 1946 by the Boston Garden-Arena corporation president, Walter A. Brown. They were originally a team in the Basketball Association of America (BAA) and became a part of the National Basketball Association (NBA) in 1949. The Boston Celtics were most recently bought in 2002 for $360 million by Wycliffe Grousbeck, Robert Epstein, Irving Grousbeck, Stephen Pagliuca (Boston Basketball Partners L.L.C.). With inflation, that is about equal to $523.5 million today. So, in retrospect, that was a great purchase in 2002 and it holds true today. The Boston Celtics were bought for about six times less than they are worth today, even with inflation accounted for. According to Forbes, the Celtics are ranked fifth in team value in the NBA, behind the New York Knicks, Los Angeles Lakers, Golden State Warriors, and Chicago Bulls. After that, there is about a half billion dollar drop-off to the sixth team, the Los Angeles Clippers at $2.6 billion. It’s worth noting that both Golden State and Boston are the only two franchises valued in the top ten in the NBA that are not ranked in the top ten most populated metropolitan areas in Canada and the United States of America. San Francisco and Boston both have a population of a little over 4.5 million, where New York has a population of over 20 million.
