Boston Celtics President of Basketball Operations Brad Stevens has been named the 2025-26 NBA Basketball Executive of the Year, the league announced.
This is the second time that Stevens has won the award, as he also received it following the 2023-24 NBA season. Stevens becomes just the 12th executive to win the award multiple times since it was first presented in 1972-73.
From the NBA:
Stevens assembled a team that finished 56-26 in the 2025-26 regular season, the second-best record in the Eastern Conference. The Celtics secured a top-two seed in the NBA Playoffs presented by Google for the fifth straight season, matching Stevens’ five seasons in his current role.
Before joining Boston’s front office, Stevens served as the team’s head coach for eight seasons. During his 13-year tenure with the franchise, the Celtics have made 12 playoff appearances.
