Barkley became arguably more famous for his time on TV than as a player.
That said, he had an incredible career for the Phoenix Suns, Philadelphia 76ers and Houston Rockets.
The Hall of Fame forward had career averages of 22.1 points, 11.7 rebounds, 3.9 assists and 1.5 steals per contest while shooting 54.1% from the field and 26.6% from the three-point range in 1,073 games.
Via Ryan Clark (on June 3): “Charles Barkley & Shaquille O’Neal argue like brothers. Though they aren’t, they might as well be because their mothers have been tight for years. So tight, that both ladies got their sons on the phone after they got into a fist fight on the court.”
