Recently, Andrew Polaniecki wrote about the best Knicks players to wear the number 2. One of those greats, Rory Sparrow, graciously agreed to sit down for a conversation about his time in the NBA, the Knicks, Michael Jordan, and more.
A 6’2” point guard, Sparrow joined the league in 1980 and played 12 seasons for seven teams, including the Knicks (six seasons) and Bulls. Sparrow was a member of the expansion Miami Heat, where he made the first basket in franchise history. All told, he averaged nine points, five assists, and two rebounds over 836 regular-season games.
