Rumored draft promises

[Tr1boy]

some people think that Jalen Lecque has a promise from the Celtics

Great, good Terry replacement

Lecque likely won't be ready to contribute much, other than D league/garbage time. But potential is fascinating

I wouldn't mind if Danny reaches (22nd pick) for the Avery Bradley like youngster

His high school tape reminds me a lot of Dennis Smith Jr.

Hopefully doesn't suffer any injuries, but a freak athlete regardless

I agree

this is the type of talent he craves for

long wingspan, explosive, raw but workable skills and young (beat others team to the punch, future draft)

AB, Gerald Green, Al Jefferson ..... so Lecque shouldn't be a surprise

I agree in a draft with very few high upside players I like the idea of DA swinging for the fences with 1 first round pick. Lecque,Bazley, Okpala and Horton-Tucker all fit that mold.

With the other picks

 I would looks at Doumbouya ( if there at 14) Bitadze, or Samanic as a draft and stash

Then a more NBA ready player with the other pick. Washington, C Johnson, G Williams, or Windler

Just don't see Ainge and company giving any promises to draft picks as, I think the team's priority is to make the picks available in a trade.
