Hall of Fame small forward Dominique Wilkins only played for the Boston Celtics, but the storied ball club left quite the impression on the Human Highlight Reel. Speaking in a recent interview with “Vlad TV” podcast host DJ Vlad, ‘Nique opened up about his time in green and white.
Joining the team at the request of iconic team president Red Auerbach, Wilkins related his positive experiences living in Boston and dismissed the oft-repeated claims of racism during his time living there as a player and after he retired from the game. During that era, Boston did not return to their former glory, but they made the playoffs and ultimately lost to the young Orlando Magic team led by Shaquille O’Neal and Penny Hardaway.
