Brian Scalabrine (born March 18, 1978) an American professional basketball player currently with the Boston Celtics of the NBA. A 6 ft 9 in (2.06 m), 235 lb (107 kg; 16.8 st) forward from University of Southern California, Scalabrine was selected by the New Jersey Nets in the second round (35th overall) of the 2001 NBA Draft.
Scalabrine languished on the Nets bench for his first few years as the team's twelfth man and only logged in short minutes during the season. In 2005, with the Nets plagued by injuries, he stepped up and logged decent minutes, averaging 6.3 points and 4.5 rebounds a game. Scalabrine's crowning moment as a Net came in Game 5 of the 2004 NBA Eastern Conference Semifinals between the Nets and the Detroit Pistons. In the game's three overtimes, he drained four unlikely three-pointers for 12 of his 17 points, helping the Nets to a shocking 3-2 series lead, before losing the series.
On August 2, 2005, Scalabrine signed a five-year contract with the Boston Celtics worth 15 million dollars. When Matt Bonner was drafted in 2003, Jay Bilas referred to him as a "poor man's Brian Scalabrine". Three years later, in his NBA preview on ESPN.com, Chad Ford ironically called Scalabrine a "poor man's Matt Bonner".

The team is owned by Wycliffe Grousbeck and coached by Doc Rivers, with Danny Ainge as the President of Basketball Operations. Founded in 1946, their 17 NBA Championships are the most for any NBA franchise. The Celtics' greatest domination came from 1957 to 1969, with 11 championships in 13 years, and eight in a row, the longest consecutive championship winning streak of any North American professional sports team. They currently play their home games at TD Garden.
The Celtics either dominated the league or played a large part in the playoffs in the late 1950s through the mid 1980s. After the deaths of the second draft pick Len Bias in 1986 and Reggie Lewis in 1993, the team fell into a steady decline, only making the playoffs four times from 1996 to 2007. The franchise has recently returned to prominence with the acquisition of Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen during the 2007 off-season. On June 17, 2008, the Boston Celtics won their 17th championship by defeating the Los Angeles Lakers 4–2 in the 2008 NBA Finals.
