30) Boston Celtics-Jaylon Tyson 

The newly crowned NBA champions will have a chance to add to their already stacked roster with the 30th pick in the draft. Although picking last in the first round doesn't usually result in finding a future rotation player, many teams in the Celtics position often choose more experienced players who have a defined skill set that can fill a role. 

6'7 wing Jaylon Tyson could after putting up an impressive season at Cal in which he averaged 19.6 points, 6.8 rebounds, and 3.5 assists while also shooting 36% from distance on 4.5 attempts per game. 

That offensive production came in a number of ways, with Tyson able to attack the paint off the dribble, score in transition, spot up, or even bully smaller defenders in the post. Given how deep the Celtics are at the moment, it could take a season or two before Tyson is given a chance to play a larger role, but he appears to have the necessary tools to be an NBA player, which is all you can really ask for from the 30th pick.
