What draft picks do the Boston Celtics have?

Through the 2033 draft the Celtics control 9 first-round picks and 8 second-round picks, with 1 tied up in swap rights. Their firsts land in 2026, 2027, 2028, 2030, 2031, 2032, and 2033. 7 of their own picks are owed elsewhere.

In 2026 the Celtics pick twice: their own first and MIL's second (Milwaukee's own second conveyed to Boston at pick 40, routed via Orlando.); they also owe out their own second to ATL (Boston's own second conveyed to Atlanta at pick 57, from the June 2025 Porzingis three-team trade.).

In 2027 the Celtics pick once: their own first; they also owe out their own second to UTA (Utah holds the more favorable of the Boston and Orlando 2027 seconds from the Georges Niang deal and the less favorable goes to Phoenix, routed via Charlotte in the pending Miles Bridges trade.).

In 2028 the Celtics hold 3 picks: their own first, swap-encumbered (SAS holds swap rights on this first if it lands 2-30; if BOS picks first overall it instead conveys a 2028 second protected 46-60. From the Derrick White trade.), LAC's first (The Clippers' own first, owed to Philadelphia in the October 2023 James Harden trade then sent to Boston in the July 2026 Jaylen Brown trade. Boston gets it outright at 17-30; if it lands 1-16, Boston instead holds a swap-rights fallback against the Boston and San Antonio 2028 firsts, with the least favorable returning to Philadelphia.), and PHI's second (Sent from PHI to BOS in a reported trade on 2026-07-01, pending the ledger update.); they also owe out their own second to NYK (Owed to New York via Phoenix, protected 31-45.).

In 2029 the Celtics owe out their own first to POR (Boston's first sits in the Portland, Boston, Milwaukee 2029 pool: Portland keeps the most and least favorable of the three and Washington receives the second most favorable, so Boston's slot conveys to Washington only if it is the middle pick. From the October 2023 Jrue Holiday acquisition and the July 2024 Deni Avdija trade.) and their own second to OKC (Unprotected second owed to Oklahoma City.).

In 2030 the Celtics hold 4 picks: their own first, CHA's second (Charlotte's own second owed to Boston, top-55 protected, conveying only at 56-60 and otherwise extinguished, from the February 2026 Xavier Tillman trade.), PHX's second (Phoenix's own second sits in a three-way pool: Boston takes the most favorable of the Phoenix, Portland, and Washington 2030 seconds, Philadelphia the middle, and Washington the less favorable of the Phoenix and Portland picks. Phoenix does not keep it. From the June 2023 Beal chain and the July 2026 Jaylen Brown trade.), and POR's second (Boston takes the most favorable of the Phoenix, Portland, and Washington 2030 seconds, Philadelphia the middle, and Washington the less favorable of Phoenix and Portland; Portland's own slot conveys within that pool. From the 2024 Deni Avdija trade and the July 2026 Jaylen Brown trade.); they also owe out their own second to BKN (Unprotected second owed to Brooklyn.).

In 2031 the Celtics hold 3 picks: their own first, PHI's first (Philadelphia's own first owed to Boston, unprotected, in the July 2026 Jaylen Brown for Paul George trade.), and HOU's second (Owed to Boston, protected 31-55; an Atlanta swap right on the 31-55 range is reported on the same slot from a single mirror.); they also owe out their own second to UTA (UTA holds the most favorable of the BOS and CLE 2031 seconds from the Georges Niang deal; a Boston swap right was reported separately.).

Their 2032 through 2033 books are clean: their own picks, nothing owed.
