The Boston Celtics have interviewed quite the cohort of prospective players to add to the team via their Nos. 27 and 40 picks in the 2026 NBA Draft. And among them we can include small forward Alex Karaban of the University of Connecticut. The two-time (and nearly three-time) national champion has among the best pedigrees of any 3-and-D sharpshooter Boston loves to draft in this summer's big event.
Karaban is older at 23, but seasoned and ready to contribute at the NBA level. A 6-foot-8 forward able to play up as a 4, Karaban put up 13.2 points, 5.3 rebounds, 2.4 assists, and just a bit shy of a block and a steal per game with UConn last season. He also shot 46.4 percent from the field overall, a healthy 37.4 percent from beyond the arc on a healthy volume, and 85.1 percent from the free throw line.
The folks behind the "Campus Reels" YouTube channel put together a clip of the best of his play for us to watch, Check it out below!
