However, Arizona's Aaron Gordon also feels that his workout prior to Thursday's festivities is what will set him apart from the pack in the eyes of Danny Ainge and the rest of the Celtics' braintrust:
When asked of his favorite and most productive workout, Aaron Gordon said "the #celtics."

The Celtics are also reportedly looking to move up into the top-three of the draft, in order to get a chance at the projected top duo of Andrew Wiggins and Jabari Parker - so anything is possible with just mere hours until Adam Silver begins placing teams on the clock.
