Summary
Dominique Wilkins, “The Human Highlight Film,” signed with the Boston Celtics in 1994—already a legend for his jaw-dropping dunks and a gold medalist—before officially joining Boston at 35, averaging over 17 points despite an Achilles injury. His one season with the Celtics was a testament to his enduring talent, followed by a EuroLeague title overseas. Also on this day: Mike James joined the Celtics in 2003, averaging 10 points and 4 assists before being traded; Brad Wanamaker (born 1989) and Bud Olsen (born 1940) are also remembered, along with the tragic loss of Mel Riebe in 1977.
