Reggie Lewis played his college ball right around the corner from the Boston Garden, and he didn't have to move far to begin his NBA career. The Boston Celtics selected him with the 22nd overall pick in the 1987 NBA Draft
Lewis had a quiet rookie campaign before exploding onto the scene with 18.5 PPG the following season. In each of his final two seasons with the Celtics, Lewis, whose No. 35 is retired by the team, averaged 20.8 PPG.
