Actually, you could probably name a lot more players than just Patrick. However, one former star who almost never traveled was Clyde Drexler. The locals used to comment about it. On the flip side, Drexler really played most of his career out of position. He played shooting guard but his skills were much more suited to those of a shooting forward. His ball handling skills left much to be desired. In fact, he is probably the only NBA guard I can remember who had to look at the ball when dribbling! Having said all that, he really was a great player and a true gentleman. The NBA could use more guys with his demeanor and class.
