[Dallas Brave]

The Dallas Morning News mock draft has Partick going to the Celtics with the 7th choice:

7 CELTICS:
Patrick O'Bryant
, C, Bradley
The Celtics have all kinds of young talent at several positions, but no true scoring center. O'Bryant has pushed his name into elite prospect territory with first a great NCAA run, and then some outstanding pre-draft workouts. Team boss Danny Ainge has shown he's a good judge of talent who's willing to take some risks on developing players, and O'Bryant has the raw goods to be an above-average center. He's projected to fall right around this area, and makes the most sense for the Celts.

I'm going with destiny on this one. How could a guy named Patrick O"Bryant not end up being a Celtic?

David Moss thinks he can and will play in the NBA

He even thinks he might get drafted, but more likely (as Marty Blake states, he will have to play a year or two in the NBA development league.
