Alibrandi reflected on the 2024 winning NBA Celtics. “I was inspired by the speeches following the finals win. Every Celtics player and coach interviewed praised the strong relationships they have with each other. They credited the win to outstanding teamwork and the appreciation of what each player brings to the table. At Interstate, we’ve succeeded because we are a strong team. We appreciate each other. We rely on each other. We hold each other up. Teamwork is the essence of our success, and we have a great appreciation for our amazing team.”
