1976 – Boston beat Phoenix, 4-2
What he’s doing: White works for the Celtics as the director of special projects and community relations. His retired jersey number (10) is among the many hung from the rafters at TD Garden (the “new Boston Garden”). His selection as the MVP of the 1976 NBA Finals was partly driven by his effort in one of the most memorable games in playoff history, a triple-overtime Game 5 victory over the Phoenix Suns in which White scored 33 points while playing 60 minutes. The
Celtics won the series in six games.
