## Resource

Chris Cenac Jr. is proving doubters wrong after being drafted 27th by the Boston Celtics — a steal for a player many thought would go in the late teens. Already averaging 10+ points, 8 rebounds, and nearly 3 blocks in Summer League, his defensive versatility and shot-blocking are turning heads. Scouts see his athleticism and length as NBA-ready assets, especially with a defined role and more space. The Celtics are specifically targeting his rim protection, and Cenac’s hunger to prove himself suggests he could crack the rotation sooner than expected. Brad Stevens may have unearthed a hidden gem.
