He came to the NBA through Pepperdine College and was selected 17th in the 1992 Draft by his hometown club, the Seattle SuperSonics . This immediately transferred him to the Los Angeles Lakers , where he spent his first two seasons.

After the 1994/95 season , the Lakers traded him on to New York. There he got very little playing time under coach Pat Riley and the Knicks traded him on to Toronto after only 36 games in New York dress and a year and a half. There he managed to show his skills and in the period from 1995 to 1999 at Toronto career season highs in points average (16.5), steals (2.5) and rebounds (5.3) and developed an excellent complementary player. In 2000 the Raptors traded it to the Sacramento Kings .

Due to his consistently good defensive performance, he achieved a place in the NBA All-Defensive Second Team in the 2000/01 and 2001/02 seasons . After five successful years with the Kings, with whom he reached the Western Conference Finals in 2002, he traded them for Cuttino Mobley to the Orlando Magic . Due to an ankle injury, he missed the last 24 games of the season and only brought it on for him under-average 5.7 points per game for Orlando.

After the 2004/05 season he was released from Orlando by the one-time Amnesty Clause and hired as a free agent by the Dallas Mavericks , from which he was released after only seven season games.

On January 31, 2007, Christie got a ten-day contract with the Los Angeles Clippers , which was then renewed for another ten days. During the second 10-day contract , Christie left the Clippers.

In addition to his basketball career, he is also busy with his documentary soap The Christies , in which he appears with his wife Jackie.
