6 NCAA prospects Boston might consider in the 2020 NBA Draft

The Athletic’s Sam Vecenie and Jared Weiss highlight six prospects the Boston Celtics may consider taking in the 2020 NBA Draft, and the Celtics Wire reviews their assessments.

Saddiq Bey – Villanova

Bey is a 6-foot-8 small forward who weighs just 218 pounds, and is a little older at 21 as a sophomore. But while he’ll need to put on some muscle to defend at the next level, he’s a very good shot who likely won’t need to adjust much to be effective in the NBA offensively.

“Bey knocked down over 45 percent of his 3-point attempts this season, and was a multi-positional defender for Villanova,” agrees Vecenie. “The Wildcats had no issue throwing him on guards or forwards.”

Bey logged 16.1 points, 4.7 boards and 2.4 assists per game for Villanova last season.
