Paul Pierce passed Celtics legend John Havlicek for 15th on the NBA's all-time scoring list with a fourth-quarter basket Monday.

The 39-year-old accomplished the feat in bizarre fashion, elbowing in a bucket over the Rockets' Troy Williams.

The 6-foot-7 small forward finished the contest with 10 points on 4-of-5 shooting in just seven minutes.

Pierce will play in his final regular-season game Wednesday, when the Clippers host the Sacramento Kings at Staples Center.
