How quick can we sign him since he went undrafted?

any time ainge wants to sign him he can.

at 6 feet, he and hudson can team up for the shortest backcourt in the nba.

and since he averaged 3.8 turnovers a game he had better have impressive skills.

Well they compare him to a Mo Williams, and he was the best player on a below average team for two years.  One year of which he lead them to the NCAA tourny when they were picked to finish second to last in the ACC.  Trust me, hes got skills.

No thanks...name the last good BC player, who went undrafted, and turned into anything...I didn't think so.

He was an All ACC selection two years in a row.  Kid can play and the kid will play for some team in the NBA

Maybe if he develops in the D-League or something for a year or two he can crack a rotation for a few years as a backup, but it seems like he's not going to get much time in the NBA if any.

We'll see though, he was once projected as a late first rounder and he was the best player on a winning team in a really tough conference.

This draft was awful.  If a player can't get drafted in this draft, he doesn't have a prayer for the NBA.

Tyrese Rice was a good but not great shooter in college (~35% from three), was a shaky ballhandler, and was turnover prone.  I'm not even sure he can crack the rotation of a good Euroleague squad.

...I wonder how former BC Eagle Ryan Sidney is doing in Europe.  For my money, Sidney was the best rebounding guard in college for a couple of years until the gun incident, child, and everything else.
