COACH’S BIOGRAPHY

BRAD STEVENS HEAD COACH

NBA Head Coaching Playoff Record: 2-7 (.222)
Celtics Coaching Playoff Record: 2-7 (.222)
Season in NBA: 3rd
Seasons with Boston: 3rd

Brad Stevens begins his third season as Head Coach for the Boston Celtics. He was named the 17th head coach in the history of the Boston Celtics on
July 3, 2013.

In his second season with the Celtics, Stevens led the team to a playoff appearance with a furious finish to the season. After starting the season 16-30
the team finished the season 23-12 to clinch the seventh seed in the Eastern Conference. During the month of April when the team was 7-1 he was
named the Eastern Conference Coach of the Month and became the fifth Celtic Head Coach to win the award joining K.C. Jones, Jimmy Rodgers, Chris
Ford and Glenn “Doc” Rivers. Stevens has posted a record of 65-99 (.396) in his two seasons with the team.

Stevens, 39, joined the Celtics after coaching Butler University where he boasted a 166-49 record, four league regular season championships, three
league tournament titles and six trips to post-season tournament play. He has the top two single season win totals in Butler and Horizon League
history, and he became the only coach in school history to lead a team to the NCAA Division I national championship game which he did twice.

Stevens owns two Horizon League Coach of the Year awards and has rewritten the NCAA record book for Best Coaching Starts by Wins. During the
2012-13 season, he moved into the top spot on the six-year list with 165 victories. He captured the five-year record (139), moving ahead of Everett
Case of North Carolina State (1947-51) in 2011-12, and he owns the three-year (89) and four-year (117) records. He is second on the two-year list with
56 wins.

Stevens left a position as a marketing associate at Eli Lilly and Company in Indianapolis to pursue a career in basketball coaching. He served in a
volunteer capacity in Butler’s basketball office during the summer of 2000, before eventually gaining a full-time administrative position under Thad
Matta. Stevens joined the Bulldogs’ staff in 2000-01 as coordinator of basketball operations, handling a variety of administrative duties. He was offered
a full-time assistant coaching position by Todd Lickliter in 2001-02. Stevens worked with Lickliter for six seasons spanning from 2001-07. During
Stevens’ tenure as an assistant coach with the Bulldogs, Butler compiled a 131-61 record, won three Horizon League regular season championships
and made four trips to post-season tournament play.

Stevens was introduced as the new men’s basketball head coach at Butler University on April 4, 2007, just three days after his former boss, Todd
Lickliter, was named head coach at the University of Iowa. He became the third consecutive former Butler assistant coach to be named head coach of
the Bulldogs, and he served under the previous two - Thad Matta and Lickliter. In his debut season in 2007-08, Stevens helped Butler become the first
team in school and Horizon League history to record 30 wins. The 30-4 Bulldogs captured the Great Alaska Shootout, won a second consecutive
Wooden Tradition Trophy, and wrapped up the Horizon League regular season and tournament championships. Butler won a first-round NCAA
Tournament game, before falling in overtime to #5 Tennessee in the second round. The Bulldogs were ranked in the “Top 25” of the AP and ESPN/USA
Today national polls for 19 consecutive weeks, including a record three weeks in the “Top 10.” Only three coaches in NCAA Division I history - Bill
Guthridge, North Carolina (34), Bill Hodges, Indiana State (33) and Jamie Dixon, Pittsburgh (31) - posted more first-year wins than Stevens did. At the
age of 31, Stevens became the third-youngest Division I coach to guide his team to 30 wins - the youngest in more than half a century.

During the 2009-10 season, Stevens led the Bulldogs to a 33-5 overall record, the Horizon League’s first 18-0 conference mark and fourth overall
unbeaten record, a fourth consecutive league regular season championship, a second Horizon League Tournament crown in three years and a national
runner-up finish in the NCAA Tournament. The Bulldogs were nationally-ranked for the fourth straight year, and Butler compiled a school-record, a
25-game winning streak, the longest winning streak in the nation. The Butler coach was named NABC All-District 12 Coach, and he was a finalist for
several additional national coaching awards. Butler ended the season as the No. 2-ranked team in the final ESPN/USA Today national poll.
The following season he guided Butler to a 28-10 campaign, a league-record fifth consecutive Horizon League regular season championship, a second
straight league tournament title, a fifth consecutive trip to the NCAA Tournament and a second straight national runner-up finish.

In 2011-12, Stevens led a young Butler team to a 20-win season, a third place finish in the Horizon League regular season race and a return trip to post-
season play. He helped the Bulldogs to the semifinals of the Horizon League Tournament and to the semifinals of the College Basketball Invitational.

During the 2012-13 season, Butler’s first in the rugged Atlantic 10 Conference, Stevens guided the Bulldogs to 26 wins, a tie for third place in the A-10,
a trip to the A-10 Tournament semifinals, a runner-up finish at the Maui Invitational and three “Top 10” victories, including a win over No. 1 Indiana.
He had the Bulldogs, picked sixth in the A-10 preseason poll, ranked in the “Top 25” for 11 weeks, reaching as high as No. 9 in both the Associated
Press and the USA Today national polls.

• Coached his first official NBA game against Toronto on October 30, 2013
• Earned his first win against Utah on November 6, 2013
• Became just the second head coach in NBA history to lose his first four (or more) games and then immediately follow that with a winning
