Danny Ainge, Robert Parish Make NBA History in '95

0:00It's April 6th, Boston Celtics news today starts now, AI powered and ready for kickoff. On this day back in 1995, Danny Ainge nailed his 1,000-three-pointer in NBA history, making him just the third player to hit. That mark while suiting up for the Phoenix Sons. He had left the Celtics years earlier, bouncing through trays to Sacramento and Portland before landing in Phoenix, where only Dale Ellis and Reggie. Miller stood ahead of him on the list. Back then, the league was all about mid-range jumpers and pain attacks, not the barrage of threes we see today that has totally flipped the game. That same day, Celtics legend, Robert Parrish, broke Kareem of Dual Jabars record for most games played, topping 1,560 while, playing for the Charlotte Hornets. Parrish wrapped his career with 1,611 games and snagged his fourth ring with the Bulls, lamenting his Iron Man status as the NBA evolved around him.
