The Boston Celtics have an opportunity to give themselves some much need small forward depth in the upcoming draft. DeAndre Bembry may not offer anything that the Celtics do not already get from Jae Crowder, but he’s the exact kind of player that can hold things down with the second unit as their primary on ball defender is resting.
Bembry would also stay in line with the Celtics’ trend of taking defensive standouts that cannot shoot. Bembry has found ways to attack and score and has great aggressiveness. Unfortunately, 26.6% from three is only going to hurt an already abysmal three point shooting team.
