After the NBA Draft, Boston Celtics President of Basketball Operations spoke to the media about their selection, the lack of movement on draft night, and other upcoming offseason decisions that rest in Boston’s future.
The Celtics selected Alabama guard JD Davison with the 53rd-overall pick. Stevens spoke about the selection, praising Davison’s explosiveness and playmaking.
