Summary
Jayden Quaintance, a massive 6’10”, 250+ pound Kentucky big man, is drawing buzz in the NBA draft despite a limited college career—just four games, averaging 5 points and 5 rebounds with nearly a block per game. His field goal shooting is solid at 57%, but his free throw woes (30%) could be a red flag. With the Celtics holding the 27th pick, should they consider trading up for him? NBC Sports Boston’s highlight reel gives a glimpse of his potential—and whether teams see the upside in this wild card prospect.
