Boston Celtics champion K.C. Jones helped build the NBA giant that was the Celtics franchise in the late 1950s and 1960s that won eight straight titles, and would return to the team after retiring as a player to lead Boston to two more titles as a head coach.
In honor of his Hall of Fame career on the day of his passing, we honor the Celtic great with a collection of videos documenting his incommensurable contributions to the storied franchise’s history. From his earliest associations with the team after being taken in the same draft as his college teammate and fellow NCAA champion Bill Russell to his final championship with the team as coach in 1987, Jones remains an inseparable part of Celtic history.
