New mock draft projects Celtics to take a wing and forward in 2021 draft

It’s already time to start thinking about the next NBA draft.

If it feels like the NBA draft was just a few months ago, that’s because it WAS just a few months ago in November of 2020. But in this pandemic-disrupted basketball timeline, nothing is happening when it normally does, and the 2021 draft doesn’t even have a finalized date yet.

But given the NBA playoffs will end late in the month of July, the draft will fall soon after, so it’s not too soon to start thinking about potential draft targets with the NCAA’s March Madness inching closer by the hour. To that end, we took a look at who our sister site For The Win’s Bryan Kalbrosky projects the Celtics to take in the 2021 draft.

Boston projects to have a selection in each round of the upcoming draft, so let’s see what For The Win sees in the Celtics’ future.
