18. <p>The Boston Celtics made one of the best decisions in franchise history with the hire of Brad Stevens. He has proven that his ability to get the most out of the talent he’s given is an invaluable tool to the Celtics. It’s not like many other head coaches out there could have made a playoff team out of what the Celtics had on their roster this year, but Stevens did it.</p> <p>So what’s next for Boston? Sam Dekker seems to fit in with the organization pretty well. For one, he could play behind Evan Turner and Avery Bradley his first year in the league, and then once he gets a little experience maybe he could drift into the starting lineup.</p> <p>Dekker is extremely athletic for a 6-foot-9 small forward/guard. He has the ability to guard just about anyone on the perimeter and can be put in many different situations on defense and thrive. The main upside for Dekker is his knack for scoring. The Celtics lacked something on the offensive end this year that Jae Crowder couldn’t really give them. Maybe Dekker can provide that extra offensive push that they need.</p>. SF. Wisconsin. Sam Dekker. 16. player
