2012-13 Season Averages: 18.6 ppg, 6.4 rpg, 4.6 apg

Even at the age of 35, Paul Pierce is a very good player, and still ranks among the best small forwards in the league. His numbers reflect that he is capable of doing it all for the Boston Celtics.

Most of his offense is now based around jumpers, but he is crafty and can still create a decent look for himself, despite his lack of speed. He is shooting 36.9% from beyond the arc and 42.7% from the field.

The Truth is a future Hall of Famer, but until he retires he will remain a decent player thanks to his great skill set.
