It’s finally draft week, with this Thursday at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn being the date and venue for the 2021 NBA Draft. The Boston Celtics no longer own a first-round pick via the Kemba Walker-Al Horford swap, but newly minted President of Basketball Operations Brad Stevens has proven to be creative in his short time as a man in control.
