From Hoopedia

Derrick Wayne McKey (born October 10, 1966, in Meridian, Mississippi) is an American former NBA basketball player who played the most part of his career between the small forward and the power forward positions. In addition to being a star basketball player, he was a shortstop on the baseball team despite his 6'9" height. He attended the University of Alabama for three years, leading the Tide to a regional No. 1 seed in 1986-87 and to the Sweet 16 (where they were eliminated by Providence). He declared for the NBA after his junior season and was selected by the Seattle SuperSonics with the ninth overall pick of the 1987 NBA Draft, ahead of, notably, Reggie Miller, Horace Grant and Reggie Lewis. In the 1988-89 season, McKey averaged 15.9 PPG, his best scoring average in a single season.

McKey spent the following six seasons in Seattle, before being traded along with Gerald Paddio to the Indiana Pacers for Detlef Schrempf. After years of playoff disappointments, he and the Pacers finally reached the NBA Finals in 2000, before losing to the Los Angeles Lakers. He then spent the 2001-2002 season, the last of his career, with the Philadelphia 76ers.
