Thon Maker, the 7'1" Sudanese-Australian center currently playing at Orangeville Prep (Ontario, Canada), declared for the NBA draft this past Sunday. His draft status, however, is still up in the air, as NBA eligibility requires one year removed from high school. Technically, Maker graduated in 2015 and is currently finishing his post-grad year at Orangeville; a situation with almost no precedent set. After the news of his declaration, Chad Ford projected Maker to the Celtics with the 23rd (mathematically, the Celtics could also pick 22nd) overall pick, but is he worth the risk for the C's?
Is Thon Maker worth the risk for Celtics?
