Roshown McLeod (born November 17, 1975) is a retired American professional basketball player who was selected by the Atlanta Hawks in the 1st round (20th overall) of the 1998 NBA Draft. A 6'8" small forward from St. John's University and Duke University, McLeod played in three NBA seasons from 1999 to 2001. He played for the Hawks and briefly for the Philadelphia 76ers. In the 2001/02 season he was a member of the Boston Celtics but was permanently injured and unable to play. Due to this injury he had to prematurely finish his career.
McLeod played high school basketball at St. Anthony High School in Jersey City.
Roshown at the time was a rare example of a player who transferred from one school to another. McLeod had trouble breaking into the lineup at St. John's. He was the first transfer accepted by Coach K. In his NBA career, McLeod played in 113 games and scored a total of 817 points. On November 14, 2000, as a member of the Hawks, he scored a career high 24 points versus the Orlando Magic.
In September 2002, McLeod was named an assistant basketball coach for Fairfield University.
In August 2008, McLeod joined Tom Crean's coaching staff at Indiana University. McLeod was dismissed from IU by Crean on March 7, 2010.
Roshown replaced Dan Hurley at St. Benedict's Preparatory School, an independent school in Newark, New Jersey, after Hurley took the head job at Wagner College in April 2010.
