Every Northwestern player drafted by the Boston Celtics

The Boston Celtics have built their teams in a number of ways over the decades, but few if any methods have born more fruit than through the NBA draft. The best players to suit up for the Celtics have, by and large, come to Boston either through being taken directly in the annual event, or via trades made that night.

And it is not just the top stars who have been picked up by the Celtics via the draft. Countless members of the storied ball club’s alumni have been taken by the team via that annual event, and some schools are better represented than others. We can see blue blood programs and some very small schools both delivering top talent to Boston’s rosters over the years, so we decided to take a look at which players came from which schools overall.

So without further ado, let’s take a look at every player who has been drafted by the Celtics out of Northwestern.
