NBA Draft, but the Boston Celtics are in a unique position." data-reactid="16">There are several teams with more first-round choices in the 2020 NBA Draft, but the Boston Celtics are in a unique position.
They are the only team with three first rounders, with the tallest arriving at No. 14 – the end of the lottery.
Even if two of these picks are towards the end of Round 1, that doesn’t mean that good talent won’t be available in that tier. This draft class is full of potential clients who aim to be professional-level quality RPGs, and those are the types of players that C needs as they build around a core of Jayson Tatum, Jaylen Brown, and Kemba Walker.
The Celtics have drafted fairly well from mid to late round one in recent seasons, with notable picks in that range including Avery Bradley (# 19, 2010), Jared Sullinger (# 21, 2012), Terry Rozier ( No. 16, 2015), Robert Williams (No. 27, 2018) and Grant Williams (No. 22, 2019).
