22. Boston Celtics – Charles Bassey, C, Western Kentucky
At 19 years old and at 6-foot-10, Charles Bassey is another interesting prospect that the Celtics could invest in over the next few years. While he might not be a player that will contribute right away, he’s certainly a player that could pay dividends down the road.
It would be surprising if the Celtics made all three first-round picks in this draft, and they simply don’t have enough roster spots for them to carry three rookies next season. Expect Boston to be busy on NBA Draft day, or perhaps draft a player or two that they could keep overseas for a season or two.
