And more---

Brian Grant is not participating with the Boston Celtics during training camp due to the health of his knees and is leaning towards retirement, according to his agent Mark Bartelstein.

Grant was drafted by the Kings in 1994 out of Xavier and went on to play for the Blazers, Heat Lakers and Suns.

On draft night, Grant was dealt to the Celtics along with Rajon Rondo by the Suns for cash considerations and a future first round draft choice

Also-

"Grant played last season for the Suns before being traded to the Celtics on draft day. He did not participate in training camp or the preseason and was waived by the team on Thursday."

Hence, Grant never wore the Celtics uniform, other than one he might have bought at a sporting goods store just like one of us.

Therefore, Mike Hawkins remains the answer to muskieman's question of "Can anyone name the last Xavier player to wear a Boston uniform?".

I rest my case.

They might have owned his rights but he never suited up in practice or game for the Celtics so I too rest my case.
I asked a ref if he could give me a technical foul for thinking bad things about him. He said, of course not. I said, well, I think you stink. And he gave me a technical. You can't trust em.
