Rayvonte "Ray" Rice (born July 14, 1992) is an American basketball player for Aix Maurienne Savoie Basket in France. He is a guard from Champaign, Illinois who completed his college career at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. He previously played at Drake University in Des Moines, Iowa from 2010-2012 and transferred after his sophomore season.
During his junior season at Centennial High School in Champaign, Rice led the Chargers to the 2009 3A IHSA Boys Basketball Championship with a 61-59 defeat over Oswego High School. During his senior season, Rice averaged 23.9 points, 6.4 rebounds, 2.9 steals and 1.8 assists and led his team back to the IHSA state tournament for a fourth-place finish. After his senior season in 2010, Rice came in second with 201 votes for Illinois Mr. Basketball behind Jereme Richmond. Ironically, Richmond committed to play at the University of Illinois while Rice was never offered a scholarship by then coach, Bruce Weber. Richmond only stayed at Illinois for one season, and current Coach John Groce offered Rice a scholarship to transfer from Drake after his sophomore season.
Rice was named a member of the 2010 Illinois All-American Team as selected by the Associated Press, Chicago Tribune, Chicago Sun-Times, News-Gazette, and the Illinois Basketball Coaches Association. He was also named the 2010 News-Gazette All-State Player of the Year, the first from Champaign–Urbana metropolitan area since 1984.
