DURHAM, N.C. ? Former Blue Devil Roshown McLeod was recently named an assistant coach at Indiana University. McLeod joins Tom Crean's coaching staff as the third assistant and will work primarily with the Hoosier inside players.
McLeod played two seasons at Duke, leading the Blue Devils to a 56-9 record, while averaging 13.7 points and 5.5 rebounds per game. As a senior captain in 1997-98, McLeod earned first team All-ACC and honorable mention All-America honors after guiding Duke to a 32-4 record, including a 15-1 mark in conference play, and an NCAA Tournament Elite Eight appearance. He began his college career at St. John's averaging 7.2 points and 5.8 rebounds in 57 career games for the Red Storm.
Following his senior campaign, McLeod was selected 20th overall by the Atlanta Hawks in the 1998 NBA Draft. He went on to average 7.2 points and 2.7 rebounds in 113 career games, while playing four seasons in the NBA with Atlanta (1998-01), Philadelphia (2001) and Boston (2001-02).
McLeod has been coaching on the collegiate, high school, and AAU level since an injury ended his NBA career in 2002. He was an assistant coach at Fairfield University in 2002-03 and currently was the director of all basketball operations and head varsity coach at Woodward Academy, a private K-12 school in Atlanta. He also served as the head coach at Therrell High School and started the Next Level Players Development program where he became involved as a coach on the AAU level for the Atlanta Celtics and Georgia Stars.
A native of Jersey City, N.J., McLeod has been influenced by his legendary high school coach, Bobby Hurley, Sr., of St. Anthony's High School and three other Hall of Fame coaches that he played for, Mike Krzyzewski (Duke), Lenny Wilkens (Atlanta) and Larry Brown (Philadelphia).
McLeod is the 10th former player under Krzyzewski that will be coaching on the collegiate level during the 2008-09 season.
