After a college career at Louisiana State University, where he led the Fightin' Tigers to the Sweet 16 round of the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament his sophomore year, Swift was selected second overall in the 2000 NBA Draft by the Vancouver Grizzlies. His career has been marked by inconsistency and after five seasons, during which he averaged nine points and five rebounds per game.

After the 2004-2005 season, he left the Grizzlies as a free agent and signed a five year, $30 million dollar contract with the Rockets. Swift hasn't lived up to what the Rockets expected as they were hoping they finally got a power forward that would take pressure off of Yao Ming.
