The way too early 2019 Celtics draft guide (part 1)

Despite the teams Championship aspirations, the Celtics still have some dividends left from their basket of draft picks which could lead to as many as FOUR first round draft picks. Despite the teams struggle with depth as it is, it’s important to remember that with big time tax payments on the horizon and player like Morris, Rozier, Theis, Yabusele, and Baynes all hitting market in a year or two, being able to find cheap, cost-controlled talent is important for long-term success and you don’t need to look much further than the East-leading Toronto Raptors who have built one of the deepest benches in the league on the backs of players like Pascal Siakam, OG Anunoby, Delon Wright, Norman Powell, and Fred VanVleet.
