Clyde Drexler Biography

Widely regarded as one of the best players to ever wear an NBA uniform, Clyde Drexler has served as the color commentator for FSN Houston’s broadcast of Houston Rockets home games since 2008. He is a former professional basketball player and the commissioner of the Big3 3-on-3 basketball league.

Nicknamed "Clyde the Glide," Drexler played 15 seasons in the National Basketball Association (NBA), spending a majority of his career with the Portland Trail Blazers before finishing with the Houston Rockets. He was a ten-time NBA All-Star and named to the NBA's 50th and 75th anniversary teams. Drexler won an NBA championship with Houston in 1995, and earned a gold medal on the 1992 United States Olympic "Dream Team." He was inducted twice into the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame -- in 2004 for his individual career, and in 2010 as a member of the "Dream Team". Drexler is widely considered one of the greatest basketball players and greatest shooting guards of all time.

Drexler was drafted by the Portland Trail Blazers as the 14th pick in the 1983 NBA Draft and concluded his career with the Houston Rockets. The 10-time NBA All-Star is one of three players in NBA history to top 20,000 career points, 6,000 rebounds and 6,000 assists. His #22 was retired by both the Trail Blazers and the Rockets.

Earlier, as a member of the renowned “Phi Slamma Jamma” at the University of Houston, Drexler helped lead the program to two straight NCAA Final Four appearances in 1982 and 1983. Following his junior year, he was named a first-team NCAA All-American and Southwest Conference Player of the Year. The University of Houston also retired his number.

Prior to his days in the broadcast booth, the New Orleans native served as the head men’s basketball coach at his alma mater, the University of Houston. He is also the co-author of his biography "Clyde The Glide," and has appeared on the popular television programs “Dancing With The Stars” and “Pros vs. Joes."
