The Resume

    (April 17, 1997- )
    Born in White Plains, New York
    Birth name is Matthew Richard Ryan
    Small forward for the Boston Celtics
    Attended Notre Dame University (2015-17), Vanderbilt University (2018-19) and Chattanooga University (2019-20)
    Also played for the G League's Grand Rapids Gold and Maine Celtics (2021-22)

Why he might be annoying:

    He shares his name with an NFL quarterback and an actor.
    He attended three colleges in a five year span.
    His decision to transfer twice caused him to sit out a year and a half from playing as a result.
    Due to his name and prior work before the Celtics, he was the subject of internet fodder saying we went from Super Bowl choke artist to gravedigger to the NBA Finals.
    Despite being on the Celtics active roster for the second half of the 2021-22 season, he didn't make his debut until a month later in a meaningless game.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He earned a bachelor's degree in economics from Vanderbilt University.
    He was considered a solid sharpshooter by college basketball pundits.
    He worked as a Doordash delivery driver and a cemetery gravedigger, prior to signing with the Celtics.
    He proved to be a capable replacement for Sam Hauser in the Celtics rotation.
    He said that going from being a cemetery worker to playing in the NBA Finals was the highlight of his 2022 calendar year.
