Brice Johnson is one of many players that is making up a much better than usual senior draft class. With a flurry of teenagers with high end potential coming out of the draft, the Boston Celtics may choose to spend one of their three first round draft picks on a ready made contributor. Johnson may not be projected to become a high end star player, but he possesses much of what the Celtics are lacking in their forwards, and he can immediately become a contributor for a front court that needs contributors right now.
One of the most tempting aspects of Johnson for the Celtics is his fit in Stevens’ system.
