In this week’s Throwback Thursday, we’re joined by former Virginia Cavaliers men’s basketball great Cory Alexander. The former McDonald’s All-American played at Virginia from 1991-1995, where he earned Second Team All-ACC honors and a gold medal at the FIBA U21 World Championship in 1993.
Cory was drafted No. 29 overall in the 1995 NBA Draft by the San Antonio Spurs, where he played for three seasons before getting traded to the Denver Nuggets for another three seasons. In all, he spent eight seasons in the league, also rotating through Orlando and Charlotte.
