Former Boston Celtics champion small forward ML Carr was an important part of two NBA titles won by the Celtics in 1981 and 1984 before making the leap to the other side of the sport by becoming a general manager and head coach for the Celtics — in the reverse order things tend to happen in for NBA executives, at that.
The Celtic great recently spoke about how he found his way to play for Boston with a pit stop in Israel and through it a career built around the sport he loves in an interview conducted while the North Carolina native was being honored at The Tradition.
Take a look at the clip embedded below to hear what Carr had to say about that era of his life with the Celtics courtesy of the NESN Youtube channel.
