Sean Dockery (born January 5, 1983 in Chicago, Illinois) is an American basketball player. He was a point guard/shooting guard for the Duke University Blue Devils. He is currently a player for the Fort Worth Flyers of the NBA Development League.
While attending Julian High School in Chicago, Dockery was regarded as one of the nation's top high school point guards. Dockery split time at point guard with freshman Greg Paulus in his senior year at Duke.
[edit] Senior year
Dockery shot 46.5% in his last season, while averaging 7.1 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.6 assists, and a team-leading 1.7 steals per game, while starting in 32 of 36 games. His 194 career steals rank him 11th in Duke history.
[edit] Professional career
A McDonald's All-American coming out of high school in 2002, he was considered a late-first round pick at one time. Dockery was overshadowed by other players and scouting interest in him fell.
Before the 2006 NBA Draft, Sean Dockery was invited to the Portsmouth Invitational Tournament soon after the Blue Devils' loss to LSU. Dockery posted averages of 13.7 points, 8.3 assists, 3.0 rebounds, and 1.3 steals in the PIT. He was selected to the All-PIT First Team by www.draftexpress.net. [1]
Dockery also played in the Orlando Pre-Draft Camp. He posted averages of 3.7 points, 4.3 assists, and 1.7 steals while playing through a pulled hip flexor. Due to these performances, some considered Sean Dockery a potential late second round draft pick. [2]
However, Dockery failed to make the draft. He is not currently signed with any NBA team.
