Glen Rice is one of the most popular and richest Basketball Player who was born on May 28, 1967 in Jacksonville, Arkansas, United States. Small forward who began his career with the Miami Heat, then became a 3-time NBA All-Star with the Charlotte Hornets from 1996 to 1998.

The Heat was an expansion team in the NBA and was now in their second-year in need of some offensive help after finishing last in the NBA in points per game in 1988–89. Joining other young players such as Sherman Douglas and Rony Seikaly, Rice would be called upon to deliver some of the scoring load despite being a rookie. Starting in 60 games, Rice averaged 13.6 points per game his rookie season just behind Douglas and Seikaly, but the lottery-bound Heat only won 18 games. The following year only saw modest improvement for the team from 18 wins to 24 wins, but Rice started in every game he played and increased his scoring load to 17.4 points a game while leading the team in three-point field goals with 71.

He was married to Cristy Rice, a reality TV star on The Real Housewives of Miami.
