Boston Celtics/Former Player

Advertisement


Question
I asked you a question earlier but forgot to send the name of the subject I was inquring about. It is Brain Hovey. Sorry about that. Could you tell me if he played for the Celtics and any other teams in the NBA?

Answer
Dear Dan,

no Hovey (Brain or Brian) ever played for the Boston Celtics. More than this, I did not find a Hovey in all NBA history rosters. I'm not sure, but faking to be a former Celtic is not a very good thing to do, especially for a deputy, don't you agree? Anyway, here you have the names of the Celtics who greeted Larry Legend in the NBA in the 1979-80 season: Cedric Maxwell, Dave Cowens, Nate "Tiny" Archibald, Pete Maravich, Rick Robey, Chris Ford, M.L. Carr, Gerald Henderson, Jeff Judkins, Eric Fernsten, Don Chaney. So, you could ask the deputy if lately he's changed his name, maybe he is Dave Cowens in disguise...... ;)
I hope this helps.....
