Chris Childs Biography

Chris Childs is one of the most popular and richest Basketball Player who was born on November 20, 1967 in Bakersfield, Bakersfield, United States. Chris Childs (born November 20, 1967) is an American former professional basketball player, who played primarily at the guard position.

However, Childs was perhaps best remembered for his five-year (1996–2001) tenure with the New York Knicks, who relied on his tight defense and streaky three-point shooting ability during their perennial runs to the NBA Playoffs. It was during this time that Childs helped lead the New York Knicks to the NBA Eastern Conference championship in 1999. He led the team in assists (6.1 per game) as a starter during the 1996-97 season, and was a valuable contributor off the bench during his next four years with the team. A visible figure in the New York media, he also represented the Knicks on the 1998-99 NBA All- Interview Team and won the New York Press Photographers Association’s 2000 “Good Guy Award” for his involvement with several charities and youth basketball programs. On April 2, 2000 he had a fight with Kobe Bryant in the late 3rd quarter. The Fight is been deemed to show the toughness of The Knicks during that era. At 4 inches shorter than Bryant, Childs punched him from the chin into his throat. Childs was ejected from the game. The Knicks did not win the game.

Childs’ success in the minor leagues proved to be his ticket to the NBA, as he signed with the New Jersey Nets prior to the start of the 1994–95 NBA season. He spent his first two seasons with the Nets, and averaged an NBA career-high 12.8 points in 1995-96.
