Leading by example, the Boston Celtics have been at the forefront of progress, advancement and innovation of the game. The Celtics drafted Chuck Cooper, the league's first African American selection, in the 1950 draft and went on to be the first team to field an all-black starting lineup in 1964. A couple years later in 1966, the organization would name Bill Russell as the NBA's first African American head coach. The Pioneers collection celebrates these moments as they shaped the landscape of the NBA and Celtics legacy. This Stadium Essentials tee features screen print graphics of a ticket to a game at the iconic Boston Garden, home to many of the Celtics' 17 NBA championships, including their dynasty years in the 1960s and 1980s. The lightweight and breathable tri-blend fabric will keep you comfy wherever game day takes you.
