Glen Rice

1995 All-Star Weekend Sweep

We’ve got another fun Blaze NBA All-Star Factoid for you guys on this Fabulous Friday. With their respective wins in the 1995 Dunk Contest & 3-Point Shootout, Miami Heat stars Harold Miner & Glen Rice became the first & last set of teammates to sweep the NBA All-Star Weekend Saturday night contests.

There is something wrong within this picture. Can you find it?

That’s Right! The 1st Image of ‘Baby Jordan’ has him wearing the # 32. That image is from his previous Dunk Contest Victory back in 1993. Harold switched to the # 4 for the 1994-95 season.

Happy Birthday Glen Rice!

Glen Rice led the 1991-1992 Miami Heat to the young Franchises first playoff appearance. The Heat squeaked in as the #8 seed in the East with a 38-44 record where they were swept by the Eventual Champion Chicago Bulls. That season ‘G-Money’ averaged over 22 points a game, and was second in the league in 3 pointers made with 155. Happy B-day Glen!
