Lloyd Daniels Biography

Lloyd Daniels is one of the most popular and richest Basketball Player who was born on September 4, 1967 in Brooklyn, New York, United States. A former shooting guard, he was highly respected in New York City during the mid-late 1980s. But he never reached his full potential.

He was often compared to Karem Abdul-Jabbar, the most skilled basketball player from New York City at that time.

The 6 ft 7 in (2.01 m) shooting guard was one of the most sought-after recruits in the nation during the 1986–87 recruiting cycle. At the time, he was considered the most talented player from New York City and was compared to Kareem Abdul-Jabbar and Connie Hawkins. According to authors John Valenti and Ron Naclerio, “Sweet Pea” was reputed to combine the passing ability of Magic Johnson with the shooting ability of Larry Bird. Daniels had attended four or five high schools in three states.

Daniels attended UNLV and was slated to play on the basketball team under coach Jerry Tarkanian. One of Tarkanian’s assistants, Mark Warkentien, became Daniels’ legal guardian, and got him admitted to Mt. San Antonio College, a junior college near Los Angeles, to improve his academics. However, on February 9, 1987, Daniels was arrested for buying crack cocaine from an undercover policeman. Although Tarkanian was known for taking in troubled players, this was too much even for him, and he announced days after the arrest that Daniels would never play for UNLV. It later emerged that Daniels had first been led to UNLV by Richard Perry, who had been convicted twice for sports bribery. Perry’s involvement resulted in an NCAA investigation that ultimately forced Tarkanian to resign.

He was raised in Brooklyn by his parents.
