It came between Greg Anthony, CJ Watson, and Pat Garrity for the honors of Nevada's most prominent NBA great, and there really wasn't any other choice than to give it to the former point guard in Greg Anthony. Hailing from Las Vegas, Nevada, the 6'0 Greg Anthony made his way into the NBA Draft after playing three seasons of basketball with his hometown collegiate team in UNLV where he won an NCAA National Championship in 1990. The New York Knicks went on to draft the crafty point guard with the 12th overall pick in the 1991 NBA Draft.
From there, Anthony went on to have a solid career as a journeyman playing for teams like the Vancouver Grizzlies, Seattle SuperSonics, Portland Trail Blazers, Chicago Bulls, and Milwaukee Bucks before hanging up his jersey for good. Throughout his eleven-year career, Anthony averaged a solid 7.3 points and 4.0 assists per game. While some might consider his career rather uneventful, he lived out the dreams millions of people have failed at and continue to fail trying to achieve.
