Boston Mayor Michelle Wu has proclaimed that this Sunday, April 14 will be Mike Gorman Day in the City of Boston, according to NBC Sports Boston. The beloved Boston Celtics broadcaster has had that job since joining former Cs player and coach Tommy Heinsohn in the broadcast booth in 1981.
Retiring from the role at the end of the team’s 2023-24 campaign, Gorman is being feted by Boston fans, media, and the team itself. “Mike Gorman has made an impact across generations of Celtics fans, families, and visitors throughout his 40 plus years as the voice of the Boston Celtics,” said Wu.
“His passion, intellect, and ability to make every fan feel special and locked in for the whole game is unmatched,” added the Mayor. “Congratulations Mike! I look forward to celebrating and honoring your contributions to our city this Sunday.”
