NBA Today: Top 5 head coaches in the league right now

#2 Brad Stevens

Brad Stevens has quickly transformed his Celtics team into contenders

Brad Stevens is still only 42, although the Boston Celtics head coach has already established himself as one of the most renowned intellects in the NBA. Stevens developed his coaching style during twelve years with the Butler Bulldogs men's basketball team, and he made enough of an impression to be appointed as Celtics head coach in the summer of 2013.

Stevens inherited a poor roster, although the young coach took just two-seasons to guide the Celtics to the playoffs. Boston has since made four consecutive trips to the postseason, and Stevens was just one game away from guiding a young Celtics roster to the NBA Finals during the 17-18 season.

His ability to improve raw talents has been widely praised, and many have lauded his capacity to expose weaknesses in opposing teams. Ultimately, Stevens' career in the NBA is just getting started, and he will be confident of building a dynasty in Boston.
