Walt “Clyde” Frazier isn’t going anywhere.
The legendary guard-turned-broadcaster said recently he wanted to continue calling Knicks games for the foreseeable future.
“I’m going do it as long as I can,” Frazier, 78, told AllKnicks.com on the red carpet for Bill Bradley’s show “Rolling Along.”
“I’ll probably get off the road, cut back on road games (but) I’ll do more home games. I still like mingling with the fans, signing autographs, talking to the kids, doing basketball camps.
“I’m in my element!”
Frazier, who played for the Knicks for 10 seasons and won two championships before retiring after the 1979-80 season, took up his post as an analyst in 1998 and has dazzled audiences with flamboyant suits and catchy rhymes ever since.
Mike Breen and Frazier have been broadcast partners since 2004, forming a popular duo that has helped Frazier become recognized as one of the game’s top color commentators.
Frazier was awarded the Curt Gowdy Award from the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame in 2022, the second time he had been honored with a Hall of Fame nod — he was first inducted as a player in 1987.
He began his television career in 1980, joining MSG Network in 1987 on the radio before transitioning to an on-screen role.
He’s earned rave reviews from many throughout his broadcasting career.
“When Walt was a player, he was a Hall of Famer because of how hard he worked,” Breen told The Post in 2022. “Same thing as a broadcaster. He doesn’t just wing it.
“And I think he’s better now than he’s ever been. It’s more than his vocabulary.”
“He doesn’t just want to teach basketball. He wants to entertain them too. And I don’t know anyone else who can pull off what he does with the rhyming. No one.”
It seems like Knicks fans still will get to watch Frazier’s styling and profiling analysis for some time.
