There has never been a pair of mutton-chop sidebars to hit the professional hardwood that have looked better than Walt 'Clyde' Frazier. And while Walt might be known for his eccentric suits and flamboyant garb now, he was a dog when he was on the court and the inspiration behind one of the most legendary sneakers of all-time in the Puma Clyde.
Walt Frazier brought a never-before-seen finesse to the game of basketball, his court vision and ability to get to the basket was almost as if he could read his competition's mind. The 6'4 guard was drafted by the New York Knicks fifth overall in the 1967 NBA Draft. Three years later, he lead the Knicks to an NBA Championship defeating the Los Angeles Lakers. Three years following his first ring, he brought the Knicks yet another Championship against the same Lakers team. The now Hall of Famer is a commentator for the Knicks lighting up the sideline at Madison Square Garden every home game.
