Boston Celtics

Standing at 7’1″, the Celtics could certainly use a guy like Thon Maker.  He’s a ridiculously skilled ball handler for his size; Thon runs the court.  He has a polished fade away jumper that can be difficult to defend against.  Maker also adds a bit of a bit blocking element that Boston is currently lacking in the paint.

Thon Maker is definitely unproven, and he will definitely need some more fine tuning if he is going to make a significant impact in the NBA.
