description: "Charles Wade Barkley is an American former professional basketball player who is a television analyst on TNT Sports and CBS Sports. Nicknamed \"Sir Charles\", \"the Chuckster\", and \"the Round Mound of Rebound\", Barkley played 16 seasons in the National Basketball Association (NBA). Though shorter than the typical power forward, he used his strength and aggression to become one of the NBA's best rebounders and scorers. Barkley was an 11-time NBA All-Star, 11-time member of the All-NBA Team, and the 1993 NBA Most Valuable Player (MVP). He was named to the NBA's 50th and 75th anniversary teams."
