Pelicans Rumors: Top 5 Boston Celtics assets in a hypothetical Anthony Davis trade

#5) 2019 First round pick (LAC)

The Boston Celtics acquired this pick back in 2016 when Danny Ainge traded away two second-rounders (31,35) to the Memphis Grizzlies for a first-round draft pick in 2019 (via bostonglobe.com)

With this selection originally being with the Los Angeles Clippers, and also being lottery protected—it does not have the same appeal as some of their other draft assets. However, if history has proved anything, this should still be considered a high-value asset if the correct scouting is done. There’s a long history of teams stealing picks in the latter half of the first round or the second for that matter.

Dark horses like Bol Bol could still be on the table, and with upside like his, this potential 20th overall pick could prove to be the steal of the Draft.
