If you have never seen new Boston Celtics two way forward Matt Ryan in action on a basketball court, you are likely not alone — but that doesn’t mean the Chattanooga product was a poor choice for a pickup to fill the Celtics’ final remaining open two way roster spot.
The 6-foot-8 swingman is a very solid shot from beyond the arc at the G League level, having hit 38.5% of his treys which he shot nearly 10 attempts of per contest, and can defend, rebound, and pass well for his position on the wing as well. A former teammate of Aaron Nesmith‘s at Vanderbilt as well before transferring to Chattanooga, Ryan could conceivably help the team in a pinch if needed, and might even be playing for Boston’s final open roster slot to keep him eligible for postseason play.
