After slipping, the Boston Celtics had their sights set on drafting Justise Winslow. Ā So much so, that according to reports, they were able to give up multiple first round picks in order to trade up to draft him.
Well then. http://t.co/U2Pp8CY3HL pic.twitter.com/UrOYaJwAcb

This is true. CHA turned down a major haul for No. 9, BOS was going full throttle for Winslow, per sources. https://t.co/RGFBTJw4un

Well, the Hornets not only passed on Winslow, who many see as a future All-Star, but also appeared to have turned down a Godfather offer from the Celts…for Frank Kaminsky. Ā That’s a lot of faith in The Tank. Ā Will the Jordan draft bust myth continue? Ā Only time will tell.
