Now, for the third time in five-years, Boston finds themselves yet again holding the rights to three first-round draft picks, one of which falling within the lottery at 14th overall.

Though this year’s draft may not be deemed as one of the strongest we’ve seen over the years, it still has its fair share of talented youngsters that could make a difference for an NBA franchise if put in the right position.

As for the Boston Celtics, despite rostering one of the best cores in the league in Kemba Walker, Tatum, Brown, Gordon Hayward, and Marcus Smart, they, too, could use for some cheap rookie talents to help shore up some of the weak spots that can be found within their rotation — center rotation, bench scoring, etc.
