Was it really almost 25 years ago? That Decovan Kadell Brown soared through the air, his right arm covering his eyes while dunking the ball with his left? That he pumped-up his shoes in front of a national audience, giving a new face to Celtics pride? It may also be so long that you forgot how well he held-his-own against a future Hall of Famer in the Celtics tough second round loss to the Pistons during his rookie year. If you followed the Celtics in the 1990s you absolutely remember Dee Brown.
The Celtics picked Dee #19 in the 1990 draft out of Jacksonville, surprising a few folks and also upsetting Jerry West who wanted the Lakers to draft him.
