Just like Bird, Bill Russell spent all 13 years of his career with the Boston Celtics. This led to him being known as one of the founding members of the illustrious team back in the 50s and 60s. Holding a decent average of 15.1 points per game, his main strength came from his defensive capabilities. He was able to average 22.5 rebounds per game, as well as 4.3 assists per game, making him a monster on defense and offense.
