After a brilliant 19-year career, it was fitting Paul Pierce ended his time in the NBA in Los Angeles.
Pierce was born and raised in Oakland before moving to Inglewood, Calif. The 10-time All-Star is one of the best basketball players to come out of the L.A. area.
In honor of Pierce’s brilliant career, the Clippers released a terrific tribute video narrated by Los Angeles-based rapper Kendrick Lamar.
You can check out the video below.
Inglewood's own: The Truth.
Thank you @PaulPierce34. Sincerely, Los Angeles. #ThankYouPaul

Though he hails from the West Coast, it’s safe to say “The Truth” will be missed by NBA fans nationwide, especially in Boston.
