The Boston Celtics' legacy is deeply intertwined with the NBA draft. For decades, the team's most iconic players have arrived either by hearing their name called on draft night or through savvy trades executed during the event. This pipeline extends beyond superstars, bringing countless contributors to the franchise from a diverse range of collegiate programs, from basketball powerhouses to smaller schools.

Today, we're focusing on one specific pipeline: the players drafted by the Celtics from Brown University. While not a traditional basketball factory, Brown has seen a few of its alumni selected by Boston over the years. Here's the complete list of Bears who became Celtics draft picks.

The Celtics selected Brown's Dick Holub in the sixth round (61st overall) of the 1950 NBA Draft. Over a decade later, they returned to the Ivy League school to pick Bob Seaman in the ninth round (80th overall) of the 1962 draft.

While the connection isn't extensive, it highlights the Celtics' history of scouring every corner of the college basketball landscape to build their rosters, a tradition that continues to shape the franchise's pursuit of talent today.
