here is what celticswire has to say about him....plus a herd and a half of other prospects.
https://celticswire.usatoday.com/2018/06/09/the-definitive-boston-celtics-2018-nba-draft-primer/GRAYSON ALLEN
Allen is an irritant of the highest order whose aggressiveness often times boarders on dirty play. He’s got the athleticism and game to stick in the NBA, and Boston’s front office – with Ainge at the helm – is one that’s likely to turn a blind eye on questionable activity conducted in the name of competitiveness.
