NBA players who also had kids play in the league: Glen Rice/Glen Rice Jr.
Glen Rice was an absolute stud in college. Over his final two seasons at the University of Michigan, he averaged 24 points, 6.7 rebounds, 2.5 assists, and 1.1 steals per game while shooting 49.1 percent from three. His senior year, he led the Wolverines to a National Championship in 1989, scoring a record 184 points in the NCAA tournament, breaking the previous record of 177 set by Bill Bradley 24 years earlier.
After a dominant senior season in college where he saw his draft stock rise, Rice was taken fourth overall by the Miami Heat in the 1989 NBA Draft. It took him a few seasons in the league to get completely acclimated, but by his third season, he was averaging 22.3 points, 5.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and 1.1 steals per game and led the Heat to the playoffs for the first time in franchise history.
In 1995 he won the NBA Three-Point Contest, and the following season he made his first of three consecutive All-Star games. From 1992-2000 he averaged 21.2 points, 4.6 rebounds, 2.3 assists, and 1.1 steals while shooting 41 percent from three. In 2000, he finally won an NBA championship as the starting small forward for the Los Angeles Lakers.
Glen Rice Jr. was drafted in the second round of the 2013 NBA Draft by the Philadelphia 76ers and traded on draft night to the Washington Wizards. He played a total of 16 games in the NBA with one start and spent the majority of his career in the G-League before taking his talents overseas.
