The Boston Celtics honored former player, coach, and broadcaster Tommy Heinsohn prior to Wednesday’s season opener against the Milwaukee Bucks.
Heinsohn died on Nov. 9 at age 86.
The Celtics wore warm-up shirts with “Tommy” written across the front.

The team’s jerseys also included a black bar on the sleeve that read “Tommy.” Additionally, the team gave out pins with Heinsohn’s No. 15 to media in attendance.
Perhaps most notably, however, the Celtics lowered eight championship banners from the rafters in honor of Heinsohn.
