Why would they draft him? Unless they have plans to trade Brown? I agree. Celts are going to lose Kyrie and Rozier is a RFA. Something's up.

This kid sucks! Ainge sucks to. They could have had Langford at 20. I’m out can’t even watch the rest of the draft. With Al and Baynes (probably) leaving its s good thing we grabbed another guard!
PS watched his interview, doesn’t seem to bright

Can't believe we passed on a 7'2 center who can hit threes

I hate Danny's infatuation with guards that can't shoot ... this one will score at the rim and get to the FT line but really, don't we need a PG and a Big?

He must think he can re-sign Rozier

I'd rather they had drafted Juliet. At least she could shoot.

Romeo Langford Indiana
Birthday: 10/25/99 NBA Position: Shooting Guard Class: Freshman Ht: 6-6 Wt: 210 Hometown: New Albany, IN High School: New Albany 2019 Mock: 23 Big Board: 18 Pos Rank - SG: 4 NBA Comparison: Evan Turner
Strengths: 2-guard with a big high school reputation and a lot of physical tools to work with ... He’s very aggressive going to the rim ... He has the quickness to blow by defenders and size to absorb contact in the paint ... He has a near seven-foot wingspan ... That allows him to get his shot off over taller forwards and centers ... Played some point in high school, and retains some ability as a facilitator ... He has great court awareness when he gets into the lane ... He makes quick decisions to attack once he sees centers are out of the lane ... He knows how to draw fouls at a high rate ... He averaged 6 free throws per game last season ... When he gets into the lane, he’s adept at finding the open man ... He’s great in transition ... When he has the ball, he pushes aggressively ... Without it he’s great at filling the lanes and finishing ... He is a good rebounder for a guard, particularly offesnively ... He grabbed over 5 rebounds per game last season ... Having grabbed 1.4 offensive rebounds per game last season ... He can create extra possessions for his teammates … In the NBA, guards who can generate extra possessions by rebounding are a bonus ... He’s able to take advantage of smaller matchups and post up smaller guards ... He’s a solid defender ... With his physical tools, his potential is excellent ... He’s great at attacking out of the pick roll to get into the lane ... He’s shown nice touch around the rim ... Has a solid ability to shoot off the dribble ...
Weaknesses: Doesn't always look fully engaged in the game and intensity level seems to come and go ... He struggles shooting the three-point shot ... He only hit on 27% of his 3 pointers last year, while taking almost four a game ... Decision making needs work ... He is prone to taking shooting questionable shots at times ... He needs to improve his free throw shooting ... He shot 72% but improving upon it will add to his point totals ... He’s not an explosive athlete ... At times his defensive effort can be lagging ... He can be to ball dominant on offense at times, leading to bad shots ... He can be careless with the ball at times, leading to poor turnovers ... He’s to reliant on his right hand, which will make him easier to defend in the NBA ... He has trouble controlling the game from the half court ... A part of the problem with his three-point shot is that he’s hesitant to take them at times ... He struggles when he is forced to be the primary playmaker ... He needs to improve his overall efficiency as he shot just under 45 percent from the field ... That’s not bad but it could improve ...
Outlook: At 6’6, 215 pounds, he’s already bigger than nearly every shooting guard other than Jimmy Butler, DeMar DeRozan, and Klay Thompson ... Romeo Langford is expected to be a mid-first round pick in the 2019 draft ... He is a good athlete with a lot of potential to be an impact player on an NBA team ... With the game being as guard dominant as it is today, a guard who can score has added value ... He will need to develop his ability to shoot in today’s era of spacing, but with NBA coaches helping him, that shouldn’t be a problem if he works hard ... With his size and length, he can develop into a great 3 and D player ... His versatility will as a scorer, rebounder, and solid playmaker, will make him a coveted pick in a league that values players who can do multiple things ... Suffered a thumb injury in November and decided to play through it, and it may have affected his shooting numbers and effeciency ...
Notes: Measured 6'4 without shoes, 6'5 with shoes, 196 lbs, with a 6'10.5 wingspan and 8'6.5 standing reach at the June 2017 USA U19 tryouts ... He has 2 sisters, Tiffany and Tisha ... He was fifth nationally in Freshman scoring ... He made the Big Ten All-Freshman Team ... He had his first double-double of his college career against Arkansas ... He was the top scorer among freshmen in the Big 10 ...
