The luck of the draw

For the second straight year, the Celtics have a prime position in the NBA draft lottery, thanks to their 2013 trade with the Brooklyn Nets that’s still bearing fruit. The Nets finished with the worst pick in the NBA this season and will swap positions with the Celtics in the first round as part of the trade. Celtics owners Steve Pagliuca and Wyc Grousbeck will represent the team at the lottery in New York.
