Gonzaga forward Ben Gregg to work out for Boston Celtics
Gonzaga forward Ben Gregg to work out for Boston Celtics The Boston Celtics may not be playing in the postseason, but they are anything but idle with the 2025 NBA draft coming on June 25. The Celtics have been working out prospects for the two picks they have, No. 28 in the first round and No. 32 in the second, and among the players the Celtics will bring in is Gonzaga forward Ben Gregg, per Gregg himself. Speaking at a workout for the Portland Trail Blazers, the Gonzaga swingman shared that he will work out for the Celtics on Wednesday, and has gotten feedback from a few teams he has already met with. "My ability to stretch the floor as a big man, that's been a strength of mine throughout these workouts," he offered, noting NBA-level defense is an area where he needs to get better. "Guys at this level are so fast and athletic," said the Gonzaga alum. "So just being able to stay in front of quicker guys has been the main thing for me." A rough year from beyond the arc likely hurt his stock, with the former Bulldog hitting just 27.1% from 3 last season, compared to 37.7% the prior two campaigns. A 6-foot-10 forward who logged 9.1 points, 4.9 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 35 games with Gonzaga last season, Gregg could be a sneaky good get for Boston as a developmental project for the future. He is not mocked in either round by most analysts, and could be a player Boston is watching as a player to sign if Gregg doesn't get picked up by the end of the second round, or if the Celtics trade back. The former Bulldog plays more in the midrange and cutting to the cup, but his past success from deep makes for an intriguing mix for his size.
