Bailey Howell had already been to five All-Star Games (four with Detroit and one with Baltimore) before he arrived in Boston for the back nine of his career.  Howell wasn't putting up the exact numbers he had in Boston, but he was now on a more loaded team, and when you are a teammate of Bill Russell, you don't have to lead the team in boards.  Howell was a strong presence during the NBA Championship wins in 1968 and 1969 and was chosen for his sixth All-Star team the year before he won his first title.  Howell would average 18 Points and 8.4 Rebounds per Game with a 17.9 PER.

Antoine Walker was a champion at the University of Kentucky and was drafted 6^th Overall by Boston in 1996, though the Celtics were no longer the dominant team they used to be.  The Power Forward would be Boston's primary offensive weapon, and he would be named an All-Star in his sophomore season when he averaged 22.4 Points per Game.  Walker would be a workhorse, and in 2001-02 he would lead the NBA in Minutes Played and Field Goal Attempts, and he would also make his second All-Star Game.  Walker also had help with Paul Pierce, and the tandem took the Celtics to the Eastern Conference Finals that year.  He would be with Boston one more season and would be chosen for his third and final All-Star Game.

Tom “Satch” Sanders is one of only three players to appear in eight NBA Finals and win them all.  To no surprise, the other two are also Celtics.

K.C. Jones played with the great Bill Russell at the University of San Francisco, where he would win two NCAA Championships.  The duo would later join the Celtics, where Jones was not the same contributor that he was in college, but his role was to be a role player and distributor, which he did perfectly.  Jones played all nine seasons in the NBA with Boston, wherein eight of them he would be an NBA Champion, and three would see him finish in the top five in Assists.  While Jones was never an All-Star, he knew he didn't have to be, and his selflessness was one of the main reasons that made Boston so good for so long.
