The 1954–55 Boston Celtics season was the Celtics' ninth season in the NBA. It was also the team's final season in which they played their home games secondarily at the Boston Arena, as the team would play home games exclusively at the Boston Garden beginning in the 1955–56 season.
During the early part of the season, the Celtics played two games against the Baltimore Bullets before the original Bullets team folded operations early in the season on November 27, 1954; both of the games played would be Celtics victories that ultimately ended up being wiped out from the official record books for the NBA's history. If the games played were officially kept as a part of the season's record for the Celtics, their official record would have had Boston get a winning record of 38–36 instead of a tied record of 36–36 for their season.
