Glen Rice began with an incredible college basketball career at the University of Michigan leading the team to the first and only NCAA Championship in program history. After this, he would be drafted 4th overall, by the Miami Heat in their second year of existence where he would be the first star in team history leading them to their first playoff appearances and winning season alongside guys like Rony Seikaly and Steve Smith. After the 1995 season, Pat Riley took over in Miami and his first move was a blockbuster trade that sent Rice to the Charlotte Hornets for Alonzo Mourning.
In Charlotte, Rice would have the best years of his career alongside guys like Larry Johnson, Anthony Mason and Vlade Divac, where in his three years, he would get 3 consecutive all star selections, and NBA all star game MVP, and two playoff appearances, while finishing 3rd in the league in scoring in 1997. During the lockour season in 1999, Rice would be involved in another blockbuster trade, when he was shipped to the powerhouse Los Angeles Lakers for Eddie Jones, where he would be paired with Shaquille O’neal and Kobe Bryant. And it would work as he helped bring a championship to the Lakers in 2000. The rest of Rice’s career saw him bounce around from the Knicks, to the Rockets, to the Clippers before calling it quits in 2004.
Rice would retire from the league as a top 5 3 point shooter of all time and finish his career with the 8th most points scored in the 90s, his game was ahead of his time and with some of the players getting inducted to the hall of fame, Glen Rice is someone who seems like they have the resume for such an honour, but only time will tell for G-Money, Glen Rice.

He really hit his absolute peak in 96/97, precisely at the All-Star Game, where he won ASG MVP. He went on an absoulte tear after that, was able to prolong it till the end of the 97/98 season. Then he got traded to LA and a reduced role plus age caugth up with him. It also seemed that he wasn't able to stay in great shape as he got older. Still, a heck of a player and one of my favorites to watch in the mid-90s

@freddyes2242 11 ай бұрын

I think the lakers held him back In that system, he wasn’t happy. Looking back, he shouldn’t have been so selfish because he played on mediocre teams for so long and should have been happy to win finally. Wonder besides the lakers during that time would glen rice have fit in? A situation where can just shoot but be a second star or first option on offense. Stockton and Malone with rice would have been good.

Glenn Rice was a walking bucket. I can never forget G Money. he still holds the NCAA Tournament Record of 184 points in 6 games. he set the record in 1989. and in the NBA he hit more 3 point shots then any other NBA Player drafted before him. I remember when the 1996/97 allstar game came on I told my friends that if they gave him the ball he would win MVP and he did, that season he was on fire all year. #dantana773

@tobyfoster5842 11 ай бұрын

English probably the most underrated player of the 80s along with Bernard King's greatness and was a dominant scorer, even leading the NBA in '83, but maybe playing in Denver hurt his popularity some instead of a major market like NY, LA, Chicago, Boston or Houston for instance. He was great in the movie Amazing Grace and Chuck also which was and is still an underrated movie also. Somebody give this man his roses and let him smell them before it's too late...lol!!👍

8th most points in the NBA during the 1990s, retired with the 5th most 3s made, 3x All-Star, 1x All-Star MVP, led league in 3-pt FG % in 96-97, 1996 Long Distance Shootout champion, record for most points in an NCAA Tournament run, Michigan’s all-time leading scorer. Has won championships in both the NCAA and NBA. He definitely has a case to be in the HoF with these accolades/recognition. We’ve seen players get in with less.

Glen Rice is my third favorite player ever behind Jordan and Kobe. He's why I became a Hornets fan and still suffer as one to this day lol. I have a signed bobble head he sent me and I've talked to him through Instagram. He is a whole different level of class than most. Great family man and so proud and supportive of his kids. The league needs more guys like Glen Rice. Absolutely should be in the HOF. He did everything. He was a hallmark on a Heat expansion team and gave them relevance. Helped do the same thing in Charlotte. Won a college championship, an NBA All Star MVP and NBA title. He is an all-time great shooter and arguably would have had even more success in today's NBA than the 90s. He improved every team he went to at a high level and did it with an aura of professionalism and leadership. That's the definition of a HOFer IMO.

Great vid man! And your right, he was one of the greatest all-around scorers of all time, not just a sharpshooter. Rice was SOOOOOO much more than just a phenomenal shooter, it really annoys the crap outa me the way he's described by modern sports media as being a one-dimensional spot up shooter. He didn't become that until he was at LA, following foot/knee injuries - which severely limited his explosiveness and athleticism. People who watched him would know that while at Michigan and through to his time playin for both the Heat and then Hornets - that he actually was also a dangerous slasher with underrated finishing ability. His lack of great quickness, nor good ball-handling ability - was made up for by the fact that due to him being such a feared and deadly shooter, all he'd have to do was make the slightest up fakes and it would routinely send his defender souring off the ground to contest the faked jump-shot, allowing him to drive to the hoop and finish. He also was simply unguardable in the post along with being a good rebounder. Though he never was a great defender, he certainly wasn't the worst either, like how he's often portrayed
