FORMER TOWSON STANDOUT GARY NEAL SIGNS CONTRACT WITH SAN ANTONIO SPURS
TOWSON, Md. - Gary Neal, who broke 14 Towson records during his two-year career with the Tigers, has signed a three-year contract with San Antonio following an eye-opening NBA Summer League performance last week when he led the Spurs to a 5-0 record in the Las Vegas session.
Neal becomes the second Tiger to play in the NBA. Kurk Lee, who led the Tigers to their first NCAA Tournament appearance 20 years ago, played one season with the New Jersey Nets before enjoying a successful career overseas.
"I can't express how happy I am and how proud all of us are here at Towson for Gary," said Tigers head coach Pat Kennedy. "I have had several players play in the NBA and I can say undoubtedly that Gary is one of the hardest workers and most determined young men I have ever worked with. I believe he will have a long career in the league."
