Can the Boston Celtics find a Grant Williams replacement in the 2023 NBA draft? The cohost of the CLNS Media “Garden Report” podcast, Bobby Manning, broke down 2023 prospect Kobe Brown, a senior out of Missouri who entered the draft after shooting 45% from 3-point range last season.
His feel for the game is strong with tremendous outlet passes and dimes in the halfcourt while mixing in power and finesse. The former Missouri player needs to lose some weight and may struggle to close on shooters in the NBA, but if that shot falls he will be a rotation player for a team like Boston who succeeded with a similar player, Grant Williams, and may lose him in free agency.
To hear Manning’s case for why the Celtics ought to consider picking up Brown as a potential solution to losing Williams in free agency, check out the clip embedded below.
