Report: Celtics Sale Gets $1B Investment From Indian Steel Giant

  • Aditya Mittal, CEO of ArcelorMittal, is committing $1 billion to William Chisholm’s upcoming acquisition of the Boston Celtics scheduled for March 2025.
  • Chisholm leads the acquisition to become governor after the 2027-28 NBA season, replacing longtime owner Wyc Grousbeck, while Mittal is expected as a major stakeholder.
  • The deal, pending NBA Board of Governors approval this summer, values the Celtics at a record $6.1 billion and marks the most expensive professional sports team sale.
  • A spokesperson said Mittal called joining the Celtics group a "tremendous opportunity" and he remains focused on ArcelorMittal while looking forward to further team support.
  • Mittal’s investment completes the group’s funding for the Celtics purchase, positioning him as the second-largest stakeholder and a possible candidate to serve as an alternate governor down the line.
