Steve Blake

He is the first ACC player to compile 1,000 points, 800 assists, 400 rebounds and 200 steals; He led the Maryland Terrapins to the 2002 NCAA Men's Basketball Championship

Steven Hanson Blake, born on February 26, 1980, is a former professional basketball player and current coach who made a significant impact in the NBA over his 13-year career. Blake first gained national attention during his college years at the University of Maryland, where he played a pivotal role in leading the Terrapins to the 2002 NCAA Championship. His leadership and playmaking abilities as a point guard were instrumental in Maryland's success, and his performance in college set the stage for his professional career. Blake's basketball IQ and ability to distribute the ball made him a valuable asset to any team he played for.

Blake was selected by the Washington Wizards with the 38th overall pick in the 2003 NBA Draft. Although he was not a first-round pick, Blake quickly proved his worth in the league. Known for his tenacity, court vision, and ability to knock down three-pointers, Blake became a reliable point guard for several NBA teams. Over the course of his career, he played for the Wizards, Milwaukee Bucks, Denver Nuggets, Los Angeles Clippers, Los Angeles Lakers, Golden State Warriors, Detroit Pistons, and had three separate stints with the Portland Trail Blazers. His versatility and professionalism allowed him to adapt to different roles, whether as a starter or coming off the bench.

One of Blake's most notable attributes was his consistency and work ethic. He was never the flashiest player on the court, but his steady hand and basketball intelligence made him a trusted figure in the locker room. Blake was often called upon to provide leadership and stability, especially in high-pressure situations. His ability to run the offense, make smart decisions, and hit clutch shots earned him the respect of teammates and coaches alike. Throughout his career, Blake was known for his durability and commitment to the game, playing in over 870 NBA games.

After retiring as a player, Blake transitioned into coaching, bringing his wealth of experience and knowledge to the sidelines. His understanding of the game and ability to communicate with players has made him a valuable asset in his coaching roles. Blake's journey from NCAA champion to NBA veteran and now coach is a testament to his dedication to basketball and his ability to adapt and succeed at every level of the sport.
