Cole Anthony
he says he interviewed but hasn't worked out with Cs. To me he is a prime candidate to be the surprise #14 pick or even a minor trade up (#14 and #30 to Kings for #12 and #43 similar trades can be made with Spurs or Pelicans). Out of everyone in this draft Cole is best suited to take minutes and pressure off of Kemba.
I disagree
The only player Danny takes at 14 will be someone they workout. Or like Okoro dropping for whatever reason
Most years I would 100% agree with you however this year with the teams limited to 10 workouts I think misdirection will be in play. If I'm the Celtics I avoid working out the player or players who I want at #14 unless that player is a perceived reach. Two players I really like for the Cs are Anthony and Maxey neither have been reported as Celtics workout participates.
If word gets out that the Cs want an individual they open the door for teams in the 10-13 range to try to squeeze them to include the 26 or 30 to move up.
fair enough...this is a fair statement
But wouldn't it surprise you that out of those 10 they do workout, none are eligible at 14 or they all fail to meet Danny expectation?
So he would on a whim....go for Anthony?? I just can't see Danny do that/reach like that without at least a workout.
Not only ask how Anthony is feeling (injury situation) but also see it in real life how he has healed etc.
I feel like if Anthony drops to 26 or 30, Danny would take him as a value pick . Like Timelord.
