The 'NBA 6th Man of the Year winners' quiz

Happy 68th birthday to seven-time NBA All-Star, two-time Sixth Man of the Year, three-time NBA champion and Hall of Famer, Kevin McHale!

McHale played 13 NBA seasons – all with the Boston Celtics – after they selected him with the third-overall pick in the 1980 draft. McHale led the NBA in field goal percentage in 1986-87 and 1987-88 and was an NBA All-Defense selection in six different seasons, making the first team from 1985-88. McHale retired after the 1992-93 season with career averages of 17.9 points, 7.3 rebounds and 1.7 blocks-per-game. 

After his playing days, McHale spent time as both a coach and executive with the Minnesota Timberwolves before coaching the Houston Rockets from 2011-16. 

Which brings us to today’s quiz. How many of the players to be named NBA Sixth Man of the Year can you name in six minutes?
