Right off the bat, we can say that J D Davison is young (19 years old) - will likely be a project for the Celtics - but I believe Boston fans will like this kid . Davison was picked at #53 in last night's draft after his sole season at Alabama. T he 6'3" point guard averaged 8.5 PPG, 4.8 RPG, 4.3 APG and 1.0 SPG. He has shown some inconsistency - had trouble hitting 3-pointers (.301) - and has a tendency to turn the ball over . But he was originally projected as a first-rounder in the 2022 draft, so he has the potential to be a steal in the second round. J D seems to always play at a fast pace, much like Derrick White , and when he is on his game, he uses his athleticism and smarts to find the open man . We should see him in Boston's Summer League and maybe signed to a 2-way contract. Davison does not appear to a "stash overseas" type of player . He possibly could contribute this season.
