Josh Jackson Reportedly Cancels Pre-Draft Visit with Boston Celtics

With two weeks before the 2017 NBA draft, presumptive lottery pick Josh Jackson cancelled a workout with the Boston Celtics on Monday. 

ESPN.com's Jeff Goodman and Marc J. Spears reported Jackson's decision to cancel his workout with the Celtics, who own the No. 1 overall pick.   

The Celtics have already held their workout with Washington point guard Markelle Fultz, who seemed to take a liking to the surroundings, per Goodman:

Jackson, who was named Big 12 Freshman of the Year in 2017 as a member of the Kansas Jayhawks, still figures to be one of the first players taken, even if he doesn't go No. 1 overall. 

B/R NBA draft analyst Jonathan Wasserman had Jackson going to the Los Angeles Lakers with the second overall pick in his most recent mock draft. 

The 20-year-old averaged 16.3 points and 7.4 rebounds in his only season at Kansas.
