Was initially thinking the same. Is it a salary cap move?

Yeah, buddy of mine who follows closely (admittedly I don't, Old Celtics Fan), stated getting rid of the Hill contract was huge...

Countered that the Pels should've sent Ball and that pick and moved back up to take White...

Believe White likely will be the second best player in this draft from what I've seen...

Not a big fan of frail big men that can't shoot; then again, not a fan of guards who can't shoot (Ball) and bring their own circus...
