Social Media Reacts

Here’s what people were saying about the signing;
@CelticsDale: “That’s a fun name to add to the training camp roster. Could be a good add to Maine if that’s how this shakes out. Really awesome shooter, both C&S and off movement, but struggles at times with consistency. Tough player who dominated the mid major level before jumping to B1G.”
Bobby Manning: “Another player joins the Celtics’ summer mix.”
Adam Finkelstein: “Got to watch Tucker DeVries work out in the pre-draft process and he looked healthier than he’d been in years. One of the most natural shooters you’ll find.”

Drake Basketball: “𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗽𝗽𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗨𝗽 𝘁𝗼 𝗕𝗼𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗻 ☘️ Congratulations to former Bulldog Tucker DeVries on signing an Exhibit-10 contract with the @celtics.”
Noa Dalzell: “NEW: The Celtics are adding two undrafted rookies to their training camp roster: Houston guard Milos Uzan and Indiana forward Tucker DeVries.”
With his ability to get a lot of three-pointers up per game, DeVries is going to the perfect franchise.
Celtics fans will likely enjoy watching him in NBA Summer League.
