Lloyd Daniels Endorsed USBL Long Island Surf 1992 Payroll Check PSA/DNA RARE!

Description

A Long Island Surf Professional Basketball Team, Inc. Payroll Check
Endorsed on the reverse by
"Lloyd Daniels"
Signed over to his agent Gary S. Sugarman
in Blue Ballpoint Pen
Dated June 12, 1992 from Fidelity New York Savings & Banking.
CLAIM TO FAME:
The timeline corresponds with the troubled gifted shooting guard's release from the USBL to sign with the San Antonio Spurs a few days later for his first taste of playing in the NBA.
"Swee' Pea" had immense promise to be a star in the NBA. Highly recruited by colleges, he settled on UNLV, never playing with the Rebels, as attempting to obtain crack cocaine from an undercover cop ended his collegiate hoops hope as well as causing more headaches for Jerry Tarkanian.
Daniels ended up released or waived on a few occasions from various minor and foreign teams due to alleged lack of discipline. He also survived three bullets to the torso. Yet, he kept on playing.
With the USBL, he gained enough traction to join the San Antonio Spurs in 1992, coached by, of all people, Jerry Tarkanian. The stop at the Alamodome became the first of a few attempts to stick with the NBA.
STILL SIGNING?
Daniels is in his early 50's
