Celtics Draft 2025

[perks-a-beast]

Just found out they are splitting the draft into a Day 1 and Day 2. That is beyond stupid.

Adam Silver apparently just loves change for the sake of change. If its not broke, dont fix it.

I've seen some mocks in recent days that have us taking Danny Wolf or Maxime Raynaud

I honestly don't' know much about Raynaud. Would love Wolf though.

I agree that Wolf would be a great pick for the Celtics. I suspect he will be gone before the Celtics pick....unless PBS can move up.

Hauser and our first to move up some spots. I wouldn't hate that.

I think they moved it to two days to give teams more time  to react to first night trades

I like Rasheer Fleming alot. 6'8.25" w/o shoes 232 pounds PF/SF/C. He has a 7'5.25" wingspan for a 9'1 standing reach. His standing reach is center-esque. He is a junior, is athletic, and has great lateral movement.

I see him as a long term 4 or a small ball center that is super switchable. He uses his go-go gadget arms to make disruptive plays all over the court, and to finish in traffic. He also shot 39% from 3 on 4.5 attempts per game. He is a good rebounder, and very strong.

I think he may go early 20's unfortunately.

Wolf and/or Walter Clayton Jr. for me

I moved Raynaud ahead of Wolf on my "guys I'd love the Cs to draft" a few months ago. Both are great college bigs who have a potential to be productive in the NBA. What I like about

Raynaud measured 7'0.25" without shoes at the combine I see him as a player who can settle into a productive role on a good team. If the Cs put Raynaud into Kornets role he will rebound, defend, set screens, and the + is his ability to hit open shots. If allowed to expand his game I think he has potential attaching close outs against traditional bigs. 

Wolf I also like but I worry what he looks like in a role. In college he played a lot on the ball, a role that I do not think scales up to the NBA. He is also smaller than Raynaud at 6'10.5 (still great size) and is more of a below the rim finisher. Wold had only 8 dunks in 37 games this college season to compare Raynaud had 29 in 37 games and my other favorite center target Ryan Kalkbrenner had 107 in 35 games! For wolf part of this may be that he was their play creator and not finisher but this number is still very low. For the sake of the past celtics comps KO had 25 dunks in 31 games and my favorite recent below the rim big Jared Sullinger had 16 in 37 games. My bottom line is I just worry that Wolf has to play AL's role to succeed on the Cs. This means hitting open 3s and creating out of DHOs. This is possible but I think Raynauds ability to play like Luke and potentially scale up to AL/KP (lite) makes him the better fit.

Interesting player. I wonder if he goes the Kevon Looney route. Come into the league as kind of a wing and then use his length to settle into a productive Center role? I know one knock on Fleming is his inability to handle the ball but as a full time center thats not an issue.

I honestly wouldn't mind if they got rid of the second round.

I can?t see the second round ever going anywhere, but it should be fixed. Many of the pics have become pre-negotiated with agents, locking teams into deals for guaranteed money.

According to HoopsHype, the Boston Celtics worked out Cedric Coward ahead of the 2025 NBA Draft.

Via ESPN Jonathan Givony (NBA Combine): Coward 6-6 1/2 wing, shot the ball well in drills (made 72% of his aggregate jumpers) and measured a 7-2 wingspan.

I like 2 days better.  I wish they'd have a 3rd round g league round where you can draft a player directly to your g league team or pass on the pick,  having time between the 1st two rounds gives teams more time to talk trades.

Saw a Ringer mock where he went #15 to OKC.  Another mock had him going to the Nets at #19.  Even if he doesn't go that high, hard to see him falling past the Nets at #26 and #27.

As a UNC fan, I would love Drake Powell.  I've seen him in the second round to as high as #20.  So he's right in the range it seems.
