Cedric Maxwell on the run to the 1981 Boston Celtics title

While most of the contemporary fans of the Boston Celtics know him as a beloved broadcaster over the airwaves for the Celtics, champion Boston forward (and former NBA finals Most Valuable Player) Cedric Maxwell was once a legend on the court he now calls as well.

The 1981 and 1984 NBA champ won a pair of rings in Boston in the early 1980s playing alongside the likes of Hall of Fame Celtics stars like Robert Parish, Larry Bird, and Kevin McHale to beat the Houston Rockets and Los Angeles Lakers for banners back in the day.
