It seems like it was just a few months ago (and it was certainly more recent than usual because of the pandemic), but it is almost time for yet another NBA draft, and Boston Celtics guard Payton Pritchard sat down with CBS Sports to share his memories of the 2020 NBA draft and what led up to it.
Picked No. 26 overall, the former University of Oregon standout detailed what it took for him to get to the point of catching the Celtics’ interest and his personal background as a child of two athletes from the Pacific Northwest to what the experience was like getting taken by Boston.
Watch the video embedded below to get Pritchard’s whole draft memories account for yourself, and get ready to see him kick off his sophomore campaign with the Celtics soon with a stint in the revived Las Vegas Summer League.
