The NBA Draft is set for Wednesday, Nov. 18, and the Celtics are the only team with three first-round picks, at 14, 26, and 30. They also have the 47th selection.
Kevin O’Connor of The Ringer reported that the Celtics have offered their first-round picks in trades to try to move up, but “no one is biting” so far. With minimal room on the roster, the Celtics would need to move some players in order to hypothetically make room for three rookies.
The consensus, however, is that this draft is relatively weak at the top but deep in overall talent, so it’s possible the Celtics will keep all four picks and try to nab either players who can contribute right away or can be turned into long-term projects.
