The Boston Celtics have a rich history in NBA awards, with 86 All-NBA selections, leading the league in All-Defense selections at 49, and holding the record for 10 MVP awards, though none since Larry Bird in 1986. Despite their success, they’ve struggled with rookie recognition and have never had a Most Improved Player. The Celtics have also tied for the most Sixth Man awards, but their coaches have not won the Coach of the Year since 1980. Overall, their legacy in player honors is strong, reflected in multiple awards named after team legends.
