Celtics announce second five names of All-Celtics roster for NBA’s 75th anniversary celebration

The Boston Celtics have announced their second wave of three groups of five players in their reveal of their all-time Celtics squad in celebration of the NBA’s 75-anniversary festivities being conducted this season.

The players, voted on by a panel of media experts and historians of the Celtics and the league, follow up the first group of five players released on January 23 that included Larry Bird, Kevin Garnett, Kevin McHale, Sam Jones, and KC Johnson.
