A day after the induction of Class of 2020 honorees Kobe Bryant, Tim Duncan and Kevin Garnett — the greatest class in history — the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame announced its Class of 2021.

There are 16 total members.

The list of NBA inductees is headlined by Garnett's teammate on the 2008 NBA champion Boston Celtics, 10-time All-Star Paul Pierce. He will be joined by two-time champion and 11-time All-Star Chris Bosh, 2004 champion and four-time Defensive Player of the Year Ben Wallace, and five-time All-Star Chris Webber. Former Chicago Bulls forward Toni Kukoc was selected by the Hall of Fame's international committee.
