I couldn’t find a whole lot of articles on either Rabb or Bird, possibly because they are second round picks.
- Fanragsports.com says Ivan Rabb has a lot of upside but will be a work in progress this season.
- MassLive.com doesn’t think Bird is likely to make the NBA, but he will have a shot to prove them wrong if he does well in the Summer League and the Maine Red Claws (the developmental league [now called the G-league] affiliate of the Celtics)
- The fourteen Pac-12 players selected is a league record (and tied for most of any conference in 2017 with the ACC).
