Ranking every No. 3 pick who played for the Boston Celtics

The Athletic ranked every third pick in league history, and we re-ranked the 13 Boston Celtics on that list.

No. 52: Jim Loscutoff – small forward – 1955-64

Loscutoff was taken by Boston from Oregon in the 1955 NBA Draft, the only team he’d play professionally for.

Boston Globe/file

While Loscy may have his number retired with seven banners to his name, it was in a support role surrounded by legends like Bill Russell and Bob Cousy. He would average 6.2 points, 5.6 boards and 0.7 assists per game over his career.
