Trivia

  • Was always a Laker fan favorite, but he and Earvin "Magic" Johnson reportedly never got along. Their strife, however, didn't keep the Lakers from two NBA titles in 1979-1980 and 1981-1982 with the two forming one of the most potent guard tandems in NBA history. The conflict apparently reached a boiling point after the 1982-1983 season, when the Lakers traded Nixon to the cross-town Los Angeles Clippers for a first-round draft pick, which became Byron Scott. Laker fans expressed their discontent with the trade by roundly booing Scott for most of his early years with the team.
  • Father of basketball player Norman Nixon Jr. (born 1987) and dancer Vivian Nixon (born 1984).
  • Guard for Los Angeles Lakers (1977-1983) and San Diego/Los Angeles Clippers (1983-1986 and 1988-1989) of NBA and Scavolini Pesaro of Italian League (1988-1989).
  • He is an L.A. Lakers star.
  • Brother-in-law of Phylicia Rashad. Ex-brother-in-law of Ahmad Rashad.
