Voshon Lenard was a 6-4 shooting guard who played for 11 seasons in the NBA with Miami, Denver, Toronto and Portland between 1995-2006.


Coming out of the University of Minnesota, Lenard averaged 16.6ppg, 3.8rpg, 2.5apg and almost 1.5spg in his four years with the Golden Gophers, where he also holds the school record for career points scored (2,103).


Lenard was drafted with the 46th pick in the 1994 NBA Draft by Milwaukee, although he would never play with the Bucks, instead going back to college to finish his senior year. In 1995, he was signed by Miami as a free agent, where he played five seasons with the Heat, splitting time between coming off the bench and starting.


He was then traded to Denver in the 2000 off-season, where he played two seasons before signing with Toronto for the 2003-03 season. He had immediate success with the Raptors, winning the NBA Player of the Week on November 30, 2003.


In 2004, Lenard took out the 3-Point shooting contest at the 2004 NBA All-Star Weekend.


After one season with the Raptors, Lenard signed with the Denver Nuggets where he played for two and a half seasons before finishing his career in Portland.


Lenard finished his NBA career with averages of 11.9ppg, 2.8rpg & 2.1apg, as well as a career 3P% of .384.


The best game of his career? How about his 38 points, four rebounds and four assist effort with Miami against Milwaukee in 1997.
