Joseph Francis "Chick" Reiser (December 17, 1914 – July 29, 1996) was an American professional basketball player and coach.^[1]

Reiser played college basketball for the NYU Violets and the Pratt Cannoneers.^[2] He played professionally in several leagues, including the National Basketball League (NBL), Basketball Association of America (BAA), and National Basketball Association (NBA). Reiser was a member of teams such as the Fort Wayne Zollner Pistons, the Baltimore Bullets, and the Washington Capitols.^[2]

From 1951 to 1952, Reiser served as the head coach of the Washington Capitols, compiling an 15–7 record in their only season of play at the American Basketball League before they were forced to fold operations for good on January 11, 1952 after previously folding operations in the 1950–51 NBA season.^[3] He then coached the Baltimore Bullets for two seasons after the Capitols folded operations, though he compiled an 8–22 during his time there before he was fired by the Bullets on November 12, 1952.^[4]
