Hondo’s Hot Hand
Date: 1963
John Havlicek played every game of his first two seasons with the Celtics in 1962-63 and 1963-64, averaging 17.1 points per game. When Bob Cousy retired after Havlicek’s rookie campaign, the young star supported fellow team legends Bill Russell and Tommy Heinsohn as the Celtics won NBA world championship titles in six of Hondo’s first seven seasons on the floor.
