For Saturday’s puzzle, here’s a closer look at Grids 5 and 8: Which Milwaukee Bucks stars have played for either the OKC Thunder or the Boston Celtics?
Ray Allen might be the best player to have suited up for both the Bucks and Thunder. Allen started his career in Milwaukee and became one of the best shooting guards in the league. He was then traded to the Seattle SuperSonics in 2003 and spent four and a half seasons there.
The Sonics franchise became the OKC Thunder at the start of the 2008-09 season, leaving Seattle without an NBA team. It should also be noted that Allen is also a possible answer for Grid 8, as he was traded to the Celtics in the summer of 2007 and won his first championship in 2008.
