NBA Grants Celtics 2013 Second-Round Pick

June 26 at 11:04am CST By Luke Adams

The NBA has granted the Celtics a 2013 second-round pick from the Thunder in a dispute over Jeff Green's medical condition, reports Adrian Wojnarowski of Yahoo! Sports (via Twitter). The Celtics filed a complaint with the league when Green missed the 2011/12 season due to a heart condition, less than a year after Boston acquired the forward from Oklahoma City (Twitter link).

While the Thunder's second-rounder next year figures to be near the end of the draft, it won't be Oklahoma City's own pick that's ticketed for Boston, according to Wojnarowski (via Twitter) -- it will be Charlotte's, which the Thunder acquired last December in exchange for Byron Mullens. Given the Bobcats' historic struggles this season, there's a good chance that pick could end up being 31st overall, or at least an early second-rounder.
