Max Shulga was a mystery to most fans when the Boston Celtics selected him 57th overall at the NBA Draft last month. The 23-year-old guard played his super senior with the VCU Rams last season, helping them to an NCAA Tournament berth.
NBA Draft and college basketball experts painted Shulga as a three-and-d guard who could someday fit nicely into a winning team’s rotation.

If there’s one thing that’s certain about Shulga, it’s that he’s going to defend.
