40. Ed Pinckney

Ed Pinckney will always be best known for leading Villanova in 1985 to the NCAA Championship where he was named the Final Four Most Outstanding Player.  As a professional, his longest run was with the Boson Celtics where he was mostly used as a change of pace Power Forward coming off the bench.  Pinckney was not a star but was efficient, showing off a nice PER of 15.6 as a Celtic over 340 Games.  Overall, Pinckney averaged 6.1 Points and 19.2 Minutes per Game.

39. Rick Fox

Fox may have been more known in his career with the Los Angeles Lakers where he would help them win the NBA Title three times, but before that, he played for the Boston Celtics for six years where he had his best individual numbers.  With Boston, he would average 10.7 Points per Game with his last two seasons there seeing him exceed the 14 PPG threshold.  He would also exceed a PER of 16 in his final three years as a Celtic.

38. Kevin Gamble

Kevin Gamble struggled to find a spot in the NBA and when he did it was with Portland, who would waive him after a few Games.  The Celtics would sign him with little expectation, but he would work his way to the team for six seasons.  The Small Forward would have four straight years with a PPG over 11, with a 15.6 season in 1990/91.

Nate “Tiny” Archibald was an absolute beast for the Kansas City Kings, and the stats he put up there can't be forgotten, and when we get to an all-relocated team, we will put up a shrine for him.  A torn Achilles would take him out of the 1977-78 Season (where he was with the Buffalo Braves), and he would be traded to Boston where he would take over as their starting Point Guard.
