The Boston Celtics find themselves drafting with some international flavor in a new mock put together by NBC Sports Boston’s A. Sherrod Blakely.
The Celtics will almost certainly have three first round picks at their disposal in the 2020 NBA Draft presuming the current standings or something like them is used to select draft order.
Current standings would have Boston selecting 17th overall (via the Memphis Grizzlies), 26th overall (their own pick) and selecting the final pick of the first round (no. 30 overall, owed the team by the Milwaukee Bucks).
With that in mind, Blakely assembled a solid trio of prospects for the Celtics to take with those draft assets, two of whom are international prospects previously reviewed by the Celtics Wire.

The third is a young domestic prospect worth a closer look, so with that said let’s dig in to the prospects floated by Blakeley in Boston’s range.
