The NBA Draft is fast approaching, and that means the Boston Celtics' front office is likely whittling down its list of potential draft targets. Right now, the two clear holes on the roster are at the point guard and center positions. Therefore, Stevens may view the draft as an opportunity to plug a gap with a cost-controlled contract that boasts long-term upside.
The center position projects to be especially deep in this year's draft class. Sure, there won't be any standout big men talents when Boston is on the clock with the 27th pick, but there should certainly be some solid options capable of eating NBA minutes for stretches of next season.
During a recent episode of the "How 'Bout Them Celtics" podcast, hosts Jack Simone and Sam LaFrance took a closer look at Chris Cenac Jr. The 6-foot-11 big out of Houston is expected to sit within the Celtics draft range, and could be a solid third-string big heading into the new season. Cenac is a one-and-done collegiate prospect, which may weaken his stock with Stevens, who has preferred longer-tenured collegiate talents at times.
During the podcast episode, Simone and LaFrance dove deep into Cenac's game, exploring what he could bring to the Celtics, how he would fit with the roster and what areas of his game would need immediate attention to fit within Joe Mazzulla's system.
