Top 10 Scorers in Boston Celtics' Franchise History

#4 Robert Parish - 18,245 points

Parish spent 21 seasons in the NBA, 14 coming with the Celtics.

Robert Parish, also known as “The Chief,” was selected with the eighth overall pick in the 1976 NBA Draft by the Golden State Warriors and was later acquired by the Celtics in 1980. The Celtics now had a dominant frontcourt consisting of Bird, Parish and McHale.

The trio helped the franchise win three titles(1981, 1984 & 1986) and Parish went on to play for the Charlotte Hornets after the 1993-94 season.

Parish shot an outstanding 53.7 percent from the field and regularly averaged 20 ppg and 10 rpg during his best years. Parish's impact on the Celtic boards is everlasting as he tops the all-time defensive & offensive rebounding list for the franchise(Bill Russell would have outnumbered him there had the NBA kept records of offensive & defensive boards when he played).

Also, Robert Parish has played the 2nd most games(1,106) for Boston as well as recorded 873 steals(4th on the all-time franchise steals list) during his 14 seasons with the organization.
