When the Clemson basketball team went to Italy this past summer to represent the United States in the World University Games, Terrell McIntyre went there thinking he was just like anyone else associated with the team. However, when the Tigers got there, he discovered he is a celebrity in Italy.
McIntyre played professional basketball in Italy after his time at Clemson, but mostly in the northern part of the country. He went on to a 12-year professional career in Europe.
He was a little surprised when fans kept recognizing him everywhere he went and asked for pictures and autographs.
