What is Brian Shaw’s career?
Before joining the NBA, Shaw competed for the United States men’s national basketball team in the 1986 FIBA World Championship. In the final between the United States and the Soviet Union, he hit a clutch three-pointer in the last seconds to secure the gold medal for his team.
The Boston Celtics selected Shaw with the 24th overall choice in the 1988 NBA draft. He subsequently agreed to a one-year contract with the team. Following his season in Boston, Shaw signed a two-year contract with the Italian club Il Messaggero Roma. He returned to Boston in early 1990 and signed a five-year contract with the Celtics. Shaw did, however, inform the squad in June that he intended to play for Il Messaggero the following season. This resulted in a major contract dispute that Shaw ultimately lost. He went on to play two seasons with the Celtics through 1992.
In 1992, the Celtics traded Shaw to the Miami Heat. He played for the squad for two seasons, ending in 1994. Shaw signed as a free agent with the Orlando Magic in 1994. In his first season with the Magic, the team advanced to the NBA Finals but was swept by the Houston Rockets. Shaw was moved in 1997, after three seasons with the organization. Shaw joined the Golden State Warriors after being traded in 1997. He was ultimately dissatisfied with his position on the squad and was traded in 1998.
Shaw signed a ten-day contract with the Portland Trail Blazers near the close of the lockout-shortened 1998-99 season, following a brief stay with the Philadelphia 76ers in late 1997. He ended up remaining with the team for the rest of the season. Shaw was re-signed by the Blazers in the offseason of 1999 with the intention of being moved to the Houston Rockets. However, the Rockets waived him.
When Shaw joined the Los Angeles Lakers in 1999, he reunited with former Magic colleague Shaquille O’Neal. He spent the season as Kobe Bryant’s backup. With the league’s best record that season, the Lakers progressed to the playoffs, defeating the Sacramento Kings and Phoenix Suns before rallying in the Western Conference Finals to upset the Portland Trail Blazers.
Shaw helped the Los Angeles Lakers defeat the Indiana Pacers in the NBA Finals in 2000. The next year, he and the club won their second consecutive NBA championship after dominating the playoffs and defeating the Philadelphia 76ers in the Finals. Shaw helped the Lakers capture their third consecutive NBA championship in 2002, sweeping the New Jersey Nets.
