The Boston Celtics upped the ante in terms of projected 2021 NBA draft stock in Thursday’s latest round of pre-draft workouts slated to meet with the team per reporting from Forbes Sports’ Chris Grenham.

Let’s review some basic information about each of the six prospects reported to be working out with Boston today.
