On this day in 1994, Boston Celtics champion center scored the 22,000th point of his career.
A product of Louisiana’s Centenary College, Parish would be drafted by the Golden State Warriors with the eighth overall pick of the 1976 NBA draft, and would come to the Celtics in a trade in 1980. He would play for Boston for 14 seasons, winning three titles and a host of other honors. The game in which he hit the 22,000-point plateau was a 21-point performance in a 102 – 95 loss to the Los Angeles Clippers, Parish becoming (at that time) only the twelfth person in league history to reach that mark.
