We've heard Danny Ainge and the Celtics like Willie Cauley-Stein, and there have been talks of them trading up for the Hornet's 9th pick to have a chance at getting him. Now, according to Chris Mannix of Sports Illustrated, drafting Cauley-Stein is the Celtics "dream scenario" with that potential 9th pick. We knew Ainge liked the kid, but we didn't know he like liked him.
Ainge isn't alone, Cauley-Stein is so versatile defensively he could defend all front court positions without a problem, and most likely be able to switch onto guards without giving them the huge advantage in quickness or spacing they usually have against big men.
