#celtics interviewed draft prospects Mason Plumlee, Cody Zeller, Rudy Gobert, Glen Rice Jr. and Victor Oladipo on Wednesday night


I would LOVE to get Oladipo  or Zellar , but both are probably going in the lottery

Still hoping for Giannis though...

Hypothetical: how many here would give up Bradley and #16 for Oladipo?

Just curious. I am a big fan of Oladipo myself...

yes. i would. oladipo is a beast. i'd say he's the third or fourth best prospect in the whole draft.

i have no idea why they are interviewing plumlee. the dude cannot play imo. he's 23 years old. has pretty much come close to reaching his ceiling. he would be a role player at the next level.

Because for a player to play in the nba he has to enter himself in the draft

Add Alex Len to that list:

"Len arrived in Chicago on Wednesday night night and promptly met with four teams — the Utah Jazz, Sacramento Kings, Minnesota Timberwolves and Boston Celtics."

oh ok , well he looks like a very good all around player

Wouldn't mind drafting him at all

I think there is a lot of talent in this draft, and it is being underrated .....

Agreed. People label it "weak" because it is not very top-heavy and lacks superstar talents but I feel there is some good depth picks 5-20ish

Are we moving up to draft this guy, I hope so.

He's going to be an imposing presence in the middle in the years to come.

Len hurt himself and recently had surgery on a stress fracture in his ankle. He has been unable to work out and due to the nature of the injury and its location(ankle/foot of a large man), his stock is dropping.

Zeller's stock, likewise, has been falling as he seemed to regress this year and didn't fair well versus larger opponents. Teams are starting to doubt his ability to play big in the NBA, much like his brother has.
