Which Boston Celtics alum is the NBA’s biggest career earner from Las Vegas, Nevada? If you need a clue, he played for Boston at the tail end of the Wilderness Era (that very long period between Banners 16 and 17 in the late 1990s and early 2000s) over parts of three seasons, and was sometimes called “Grits N Gravy” as a nickname.
If that hint did not get the job done for you, we can let you know the answer. It is former Celtics shooting guard Ricky Davis, who played for Boston between the 2003-04 season and the 2005-06 season.
Davis has a small and likely to shrink lead in Sin City career earnings, having taken home a total of $42,872,920 in his NBA career per HoopsHype.

He will likely be passed by Zach Collins ($38,382,615) on the San Antonio Spurs center’s next deal, but is safe from fellow Celtics alum Marcus Banks ($26,135,520), as well as CJ Watson ($23,756,506) and Pat Garrity ($22,788,021).
