Larry McNeill - College Basketball Legend - Obituary Request
Posted by: Pamala Steward (ID *****7844) Date: November 22, 2007 at 15:39:12

I'm seeking Larry McNeill's obituary. He was born on January 31st, 1951 and died on December 29, 2004. He is related to the McNeill family of Robeson County, NC.

"Mr. McNeill attended Marquette University where he lettered in basketball in 1972 and 1973. Leaving at the end of his sophomore year, he was selected in the second round of the NBA Draft by the Kansas City?Omaha Kings. Mr. McNeill enjoyed 6 seasons in the NBA with the Kansas City-Omaha Kings, Kansas City Kings, New York Nets, Golden State Warriors, Buffalo Braves and Detroit Pistons. While playing in the 1975 playoff series for the Kings against the Chicago Bulls, he set a NBA playoff record for the most field goals made without a miss, shooting a perfect 12/12 from the field during that legendary night. His record still stands today."
