Desmond Bane

The Boston Celtics were recently talking to TCU sharpshooter Desmond Bane in a virtual capacity, perhaps aiming to take him with the #14 pick. Bane is been talking to other teams in that range, including the Phoenix Suns, who own the #10 pick.

In fact, as Bane told reporters the Cs were his first interview:

"“I believe they were my first interview,” Bane said. “I think I was the interview for 15 of the teams that I interviewed with and second for a good majority of the other ones. There was a lot of interest early on, and the Celtics were one of those teams.”"

Interesting.

Not only that, but Bane went into depth about his fit on the team:

"“They play a lot of similar wings, versatile wings, guys who can switch all over the floor. You saw how valuable a guy like Grant Williams was, a rookie who stepped in and could guard multiple positions. That’s something I feel like I bring to the table as well, and some off-ball shooting, things like that. I have good size for the position and versatility is something that I hang my hat on. I’m kind of one of those junkyard dog guys similar to Marcus Smart, it doesn’t matter if I get matched up on a guy who is bigger than me or much smaller than me, I’m going to find a way to get it done.”"

You could go ahead and buy as many shares of stock in this rumor as humanly possible.

Verdict: Buy
