It didn’t take long for Boston to make a positive first impression on Celtics rookie Jordan Walsh.

Walsh arrived in the area on Sunday, days after the Celtics selected him with the No. 38 pick in the NBA Draft. By Monday afternoon, he was dribbling with local kids during a clinic at the Cambridge Community Center.

“It’s starting to sink in. This helps for sure,” Walsh said. “The kids definitely helped welcome me to the Celtics. It’s been fun. I love the city so far. I love the food that I’ve eaten, I love the people.
