John Nash is the Trail Blazers sixth general manager in the team's history.
Nash has served as a color analyst for Comcast sports for the past two years. Prior to his stint at Comcast, Nash spent 15 years as a general manager in the NBA.
During his almost two decades in the front office, Nash garnered a reputation as a knowledgeable and trusted talent evaluator when acquiring players. Nash most recently held the general manager post for the New Jersey Nets from 1996-2001. During that time he made four major multi-player trades and added Kenyon Martin in an attempt to bolster the Nets roster.
Prior to the Nets, Nash spent six seasons with the Washington Bullets/Wizards. Nash showed why he is well regarded as a talent evaluator in the league by plucking future NBA All-Stars Juwan Howard, Rasheed Wallace, and Tom Gugliotta from the NBA draft and trading for Chris Webber. Nash got his start as a GM during a nine-year stint with the Philadelphia 76ers highlighted by a World Championship in 1983.
