Tom Heinsohn
Dom was drafted by the Boston Celtics in the 1958 NBA Draft (31st overall pick). That team already had Bob Cousy, Bill Russell, Bill Sharman, and Tom Heinsohn (and would go on to win the NBA championship in 1959). Dom was traded after the pre-season camp to The Akron Goodyear Wingfoots as part of the prestigious National Industrial Basketball League in Akron, OH from 1958-1960.
