If you are among fans of the Boston Celtics who only remember Celtics broadcaster Cedric Maxwell for his work alongside Sean Grande calling games on the radio waves, you are far from alone. But Boston superfan Donnie Wahlberg, Maxwell winning Finals Most Valuable Player is the memory that stands out about the North Carolina native the most.

In a recent episode of the CLNS Media “Cedric Maxwell” podcast, Wahlberg praised Maxwell for his outstanding performance during the 1981 NBA Finals. The actor also expressed his admiration for Cornbread (as Maxwell is called for a nickname), highlighting his ability to carry his team to victory.
