Kevin McHale Celtics Boston (Organization) Boston Celtics Cedric Maxwell Red Auerbach

To honor the career of Hall of Fame Boston Celtics big man Kevin McHale, his peers and friends from the wider Celtics world assembled to roast and boast the Minnesota native’s achievements with Boston.

Cedric Maxwell, Dave Gavitt, Glenn Ordway, Red Auerbach and many others attended and even told tales for a fitting sendoff to McHale, one of the greatest power forwards to ever lace them up. Even former Celtics head coach Bill Fitch had memories to share at the end of the future Hall of Famer’s career.

To see the historic event for yourself, check out the clip assembled and hosted by the folks over at the CLNS Media “NBA History and Legends” YouTube channel we have embedded below for your convenience.
