Freshman point guards often have turnover issues I'll take 6'2.5" explosive point guard at 53 shooting not great but not so bad there can't be hope for improvement

Let's all remember this pick is completely immaterial to our future and that it makes no sense to get even moderately upset about it.

I think JD will play as many career minutes for the Celtics as Josip Sesar.

He makes his shots but boy does it take forever to shoot even when wide open.

The likelihood of anyone at that slot making any difference in the NBA were already extremely low.

Had no expectations on this pick. Free agency is where it's at.

He does sound like a crazy fast dude. Would be nice not to walk it up as much.

Inconsistent shooter who turns the ball over at an alarming rate. Sounds like he will fit right in with the Celtics
