Paul Pierce Signed a Deal with Boston and will Retire as a Celtic and That's the Truth
39-year-old Paul Pierce is back to the city where it all started. Pierce has been with three different teams in the last four years and now he is back once again to the team that drafted him 10th overall in 1998. He is a Celtic once again and it will be the last team that he will ever play with in the NBA.
"We're honored that Paul has chosen to retire as a Celtic. He is among the very best Celtics -- a champion on and off the court." said Celtics governor and managing partner, Wyc Grousbeck. "We congratulate Paul on his Hall of Fame career, and look forward to seeing his number raised to the rafters of TD Garden."
Paul Pierce, a 15 year Celtic had his best memories as a basketball player wearing the Boston Celtics uniform. He is arguably one of the best players in Boston and would probably be inducted into the Hall of fame one day.
Paul Pierce is Green blooded.
