Lance Terrell McIntyre (born October 18, 1977) is a retired American professional
College career
McIntyre played college basketball for Clemson University's basketball team, the Clemson Tigers. The diminutive point guard left his mark on the history books of the college, and is still considered one of its best players of all-time. McIntyre is the second leading scorer in the history of Clemson basketball. As a freshman, he averaged 12.7 points and 3 assists per game. As a sophomore, McIntyre became the leading point guard for Clemson, averaging 16.4 points and 4.4 assists per game. The next year, as a junior, he averaged 14 points per game and improved his shooting percentage dramatically, jumping from 42% shooting from the field, to 50% shooting from the field. He also improved his defense by adding some weight, which helped him to get more steals (2 per game) and rebounds (3 per game). McIntyre had his best year at Clemson as a senior. He was able to lead Clemson to the final game of the 1999 National Invitation Tournament, and he also performed excellently on the stat sheets. McIntyre scored 18 points, dished 5.3 assists and made almost three 3 pointers per game (at a 40% rate) in his senior season.

During his playing career prime, McIntyre was considered to be an excellent offensive point guard, with good shooting skills. Even though his size could hurt him on defense, he was a pesky defender on the ball, and one of the quickest players in European basketball. The leadership skills and heart he brought to the game made him a competent floor general.
