With the 22nd pick in the 2019 NBA draft, the Celtics took Grant Williams of Tennessee
The Celtics used their 22nd pick to take Grant Williams, a power forward out of Tennessee (per SI's Jeremy Woo):
Williams is another experienced college player who could end up in the 20s, but it’s also possible he falls a bit here just based on the way the second round tends to work, and the overall discrepancy in how teams view the 20-40 range this year. Teams have doubts about his outside shot and perimeter defense translating to the NBA, which has kept his value deflated despite a strong statistical case.
The 6'7" forward averaged 18.8 PPG, 7.5 RPG and 3.2 APG at Tennessee.
