In his first season with the Celtics last year, Udoka led Boston to the Eastern Conference final, where his team defeated the Miami Heat to take a trip to the NBA Finals. The Golden State Warriors would eventually win.
The Celtics went into the playoffs as the number two seed in the Eastern Conference, going 51-31.
Udoka became the fifth coach in the last 25 years to make the Finals in his first year as head coach.
