The NBA Draft Lottery is set to take place Tuesday night, and the Celtics hold the best odds at landing the top pick in this year’s upcoming draft—though the team historically has had poor luck with locking down a high selection.
Should the Celtics actually receive the first pick, what they choose to do with it will be determined on June 22.
Many are projecting that Washington’s Markelle Fultz or UCLA’s Lonzo Ball will be selected No. 1 overall. While Lonzo’s father, Lavar, would rather his son play for the Lakers over the Celtics, Fultz seems to have no issues with the prospect of heading to Boston.
