16. Boston Celtics

16. player. 18. This is another pick that could be packaged in a trade but could also be an opportunity to add another big body. The Celtics have a nice stockpile of players in the backcourt and would replicate that in the front court by adding Bender and Domantas Sabonis with their first two picks.. PF. Gonzaga. Domantas Sabonis

17. Memphis Grizzlies

17. player. 211. The Grizzlies need depth at the point even if they re-sign <a href=. PG. Notre Dame. Demetrius Jackson

18. Detroit Pistons

Vanderbilt. Wade Baldwin IV . 18. player. 64. Already with a young core group of players who made the playoffs for the first time last season, the Pistons might feel this pick is better used in a trade for a veteran rather than on another young player. Making the pick here, Wade Baldwin fills a need at point guard behind <a href=. SG

19. Denver Nuggets

player. 73. Vanderbilt players go back-to-back with the Nuggets adding more size than they got with their first two first round picks. Jones may have trouble finding playing time early on but he adds to the team’s young frontcourt depth.. PF. Vanderbilt. Damian Jones . 19

20. Indiana Pacers

The Pacers could go in a number of directions with this pick but here it makes sense to get younger at the point with Tyler Ulis. There will be questions about his size but he maximized his opportunity in moving from a backup to starting role in his second season at Kentucky.. PG. Kentucky. Tyler Ulis . 20. player. 100
