After starting the week by trading away two key members of their 2024 championship team, the Boston Celtics ended up drafting three players and making a trade over the two-day NBA Draft.

When speaking to the media after the second round, Celtics Vice President of Basketball Operations, Mike Zarren, detailed what Shulga brings to the table and why Boston was drawn to the impressive shooter. Shulga played in 35 games last season, averaging 15 points, 5.9 rebounds and 4 assists per game while shooting 38.7% from 3-point range.

The Celtics were busy during the 2025 NBA Draft, using all three of their picks on foreign-born players over the course of two rounds.
