Larry Bird, Kevin McHale, and Robert Parish were the Boston Celtics’ original Big Three. After Paul Pierce and Antoine Walker were unable to lead the Celtics to an NBA Championship, Paul Pierce teamed up with Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen to become the new Boston Celtics’ Big Three. However, before the Boston Celtics drafted Paul Pierce from the University of Kansas in the 1998 NBA Draft, they selected local collegiate star Reggie Lewis from Northeastern University in the 1987 NBA Draft.

Boston Celtics Rising Star Reggie Lewis

Reggie Lewis had garnered national attention as a star on the undefeated Dunbar High School team from Baltimore, Maryland. Dunbar High School—with future NBA players Lewis, Muggsy Bogues, Reggie Williams, and David Wingate—had won 50 games in a row during one long stretch. Lewis carried this into his NCAA Basketball career, becoming Northeastern University’s all-time leading scorer—and the ninth leading scorer in NCAA Basketball Men’s Division I history—in four years of college basketball. Averaging 22.2 points per game, Reggie Lewis had his jersey number 35 retired by Northeastern a couple years after graduating.

In the NBA, Lewis quickly learned how to compete at the professional level. After spending a year as an understudy to Larry Bird, Lewis took over as a starter for the Celtics after Bird suffered a season-ending injury. Lewis became an instant all-around threat, averaging 18.5 points, 4.7 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.5 steals, and 0.9 blocks per game as well as shooting .486 from the field and .787 from the free throw line during the 1988-1989 NBA season.
