Glover was born and bred in Wollongong, New South Wales.[2] He grew up playing for the New South Wales Country basketball team.[3]

He returned to the Centre of Excellence in 2015, 2016 and 2017. He had another quick stint with the Centre of Excellence in 2019 in the inaugural NBL1 season.
Glover signed with his hometown Illawarra Hawks as a development player in 2016.[4] In 2017, he tore his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) for the second time and rehabilitated while contracted to the Hawks as he turned down an offer to play college basketball with the Saint Mary's Gaels.

On 20 July 2020, Glover signed a three-year deal with the Sydney Kings.[7] In 2021 he tore his ACL for the third time. His father's hamstring was used to repair this tear after using his own hamstrings to repair the previous two tears.[8] He went on to became a two-time NBL champion in 2022 and 2023. Following the 2022–23 NBL season, he joined the Eltham Wildcats of the NBL1 South.[9]
On 24 March 2023, Glover re-signed with the Kings on a two-year deal. On 5 April 2024, he was granted a release from the final year of his contract.[10] He subsequently re-joined the Eltham Wildcats for the 2024 NBL1 South season.[11] He helped the Wildcats win the NBL1 South championship while earning grand final MVP honours.[12] [13]
