The 2025 NBA Draft begins at 8 p.m. Wednesday from Brooklyn’s Barclays Center. The first round will take place Wednesday and be broadcast on ABC and ESPN. The second round is set for 8 p.m. Thursday on ESPN. Splitting up the rounds to its own separate day is a relatively new development for the league, which used to power through all on one night.

The Celtics control the Nos. 28 and 32 picks of the '25 draft in the first and second round, respectively, and could need some cheap forward depth.

Holiday was traded by the Milwaukee Bucks to Portland in September 2023 when the Bucks acquired perennial All-Star Damian Lillard. Holiday was then dealt days later to the Celtics, moving right into the starting lineup and eventually earning his second career title last June.
