As NBA coaches from opposing conferences, Doc Rivers and Brad Stevens have the opportunity to face each other just twice per regular season.

Wednesday night marked a rarer occurrence, however, as the two suited up to play some hoops against each other at TD Garden.

The former Boston Celtics coach and his successor took part in the Action for Boston Community Development Hoops Dreams charity event, joining a few local celebrities, such as Massachusetts Governor Charlie Baker, Attorney General Maura Healy, and journalists Bob Ryan and Jackie MacMullan, for a friendly shooting competition.
