Demerick Montae "Erick" Strickland (born November 25, 1973) is an American former professional basketball player who played in the National Basketball Association (NBA).
Born in Opelika, Alabama, Strickland attended Bellevue West High School in Bellevue, Nebraska, then played his college basketball career at the University of Nebraska.[1] He was the 2nd all time scorer for Class A Nebraska basketball.[2] Strickland was undrafted in the 1996 NBA draft, but caught on as a free agent with the Dallas Mavericks, where he spent four seasons and averaged a career-high 12.8 points per game in 1999–2000. He later played for the New York Knicks, Vancouver Grizzlies, Boston Celtics, Indiana Pacers and Milwaukee Bucks, averaging 7.5 points per game throughout his nine-year NBA career.[3]
Strickland also played two seasons of minor league baseball.[4] He played in the Gulf Coast League with the Gulf Coast Marlins in 1992 and in the New York–Penn League with the Elmira Pioneers in 1993. Despite being a full two years younger than the average batter in his league in 1993,[5] he led the Pioneers in triples and finished second in stolen bases and bases on balls.[6]
