Former Boston Celtics All Star wing Paul Pierce will be inducted into the Class of 2018 Kansas Sports Hall of Fame along with twelve others this October, in Wichita, Kansas.
Pierce played three seasons at Kansas before being selected tenth overall by Boston in the 1998 NBA Draft.
There, the Truth would go on to play 19 seasons in the NBA (more than any other player from Kansas), including 15 for Boston, two for the Los Angeles Clippers, and one each for the Brooklyn Nets and Washington Wizards.
