Walt “Clyde” Frazier honored with the Curt Gowdy Award from the Basketball Hall of Fame

Beloved former Knicks player and current MSG Network analyst Walt “Clyde” Frazier received the Curt Gowdy Award for his excellence in broadcasting from the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame at a ceremony on Friday night.

This comes along with being inducted to the same Hall of Fame as a player back in 1987 after winning two titles for the New York Knicks as their star point guard.

Frazier has been with MSG Network since 1987, starting out on radio and then transitioning to television. He’s been dazzling us with his suits and helping to build the basketball lexicon ever since and we should know as this site is named for one of his famous hoops rhymes.
