Harvey Carey (born March 18, 1979) is a Filipino-American professional basketball player born in San Francisco, California and currently playing for the Talk 'N Text Tropang Texters in the Philippine Basketball Association.[1] He is known for his defense and tenacious rebounding skills. Even though undersized at his position, he still manages to be effective inside the paint. He has also developed a steady mid-range jumpshot from the corner. Harvey Carey is one of the most athletic PBA players now in the league. He might be very undersized in the power forward position but his high jumping makes up for it. He's known to be a very emotional player, screaming through put back dunks, tip in's and banging bodies in the shaded area. He led the league in total rebounds, offensive, defensive and overall total in 2008-09.
