The Boston Celtics have had quite the week. And Twitter noticed.
One day after the C’s clinched a berth in the Eastern Conference finals with a thrilling win over the Washington Wizards, the ping-pong balls bounced their way at the lottery, earning them the No. 1 pick in the 2017 NBA Draft.
It was a wild night at the NBA Draft Lottery, and you can relive some of it below with some of the best tweets from Tuesday night.
