Gregory left Kansas ranked tenth on the school´s all-time scoring list. In his senior season he was named honorable mention All-America by the Associated Press and led the Jayhawks to the Sweet 16, where they lost to Illinois. Gregory figured to find a spot in the NBA after graduation, especially when he averaged 12 points in the Chicago NBA Pre-Draft Camp. Gregory went undrafted, but signed as a free agent with the Memphis Grizzlies. The Grizzlies decided not to add Gregory to their regular season roster, so he moved on to the National Basketball Development League.

After playing for both the Mobile Revelers and the Greenville Groove, Gregory went on to play in another semi-pro league with the Dodge City Legend of the United States Basketball League. In 28 games with Dodge City, Gregory averaged 20.1 points per game. Following the conclusion of the USBL season, Gregory went overseas and is currently playing for the Chester Jets of the British Basketball League. Gregory recently scored 23 points for the Jets in a victory against the Newcastle Eagles on Feb. 8.

Career / Comments:
Birthdate: November 16, 1978; Birthplace: Columbus, Ohio
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Outlook:
At his best on the fastbreak, where he runs the floor extremely well and finishes strong. His high-flying dunks last season made many highlight reels. Handles the ball and shoots well enough to play the big guard position but uses his long arms and leaping ability to play small forward. Not the best shooter, but one of the top dunkers/leapers. A good rebounder that can also defend and score off the dribble, even though he isn’t the best ball handler. Watch him move up, if he can come back and start shooting with consistency.
