Toney Bernard Douglas (born March 16, 1986) is an American professional basketball player for FC Porto of the Liga Portuguesa de Basquetebol.

He played college basketball for Auburn for one year, eventually becoming frustrated with his role on the team as a shooting guard.

He subsequently transferred to Florida State University for the remainder of his collegiate career, where he switched to the point guard position.

He stepped up as a team leader in his final season, breaking personal records in several statistical categories and helped lead the Seminoles to their first NCAA Tournament in 11 years.

He played for the Knicks, Houston Rockets, Sacramento Kings and the Golden State Warriors before being traded to the Miami Heat in 2014.

[1] In the 2001–02 season, when he was made a starter,[1] Douglas averaged 21.5 points, 6.5 rebounds and 4.0 assists per game, and became the first sophomore to earn first-team honors at the all-region and all-state levels.

He was named the Georgia Class 5A Player of the Year, and helped lead the team to the championship game of the state playoffs.

[2] Douglas submitted his name for the NBA draft in the 2005 offseason, but did not sign with an agent, therefore allowing him to stay eligible for college when he later withdrew from the process.

On June 29, 2005, Douglas enrolled at Florida State University, where coach Leonard Hamilton allowed him to play point guard.

[2][4][5] Douglas initially struggled at the point guard position while adjusting to the Florida State offense, but continued to play well in other respects.

[7][8][9] On February 7, 2007, Douglas injured the fourth metacarpal in his right (shooting) hand, forcing him to sit out six games (nearly a month)—of which Florida State lost five.

[2][12] In his junior season, Douglas continued his transition to point guard, creating offensive opportunities for others on the team in addition to scoring by himself.

Although Douglas still needed to work on polishing the distribution aspect of his game, coach Hamilton said in January 2008 that "he's done an exceptional job when you take into consideration this hasn't been his role prior to coming to Florida State.

[15] Despite Douglas' efforts (18 points, 5 assists and 3 steals) against North Carolina in the quarterfinals, Florida State lost the game, effectively shutting them out from the NCAA tournament.

[26] Later that night, the New York Knicks acquired the rights to Douglas in exchange for a second-round draft pick in 2011 and $3 million in cash considerations.

On July 11, 2012, Douglas was traded, along with Josh Harrellson, Jerome Jordan, two future second-round draft picks and cash considerations, to the Houston Rockets in exchange for Marcus Camby.

[33] On February 20, 2013, Douglas was traded, along with Cole Aldrich and Patrick Patterson, to the Sacramento Kings in exchange for Thomas Robinson, Francisco García and Tyler Honeycutt.

On January 15, 2014, Douglas was traded to the Miami Heat in a three-team deal involving the Warriors and the Boston Celtics.

[36] The Heat made their fourth straight appearance in the NBA Finals in 2014, but lost the series in five games to the San Antonio Spurs.

Memphis had to use an NBA hardship exemption in order to sign him as he made their roster stand at 16, one over the allowed limited of 15.

[64] In 18 league, cup, and European competition matches, he averaged 16 points, 5.5 rebounds, 4.5 assists, and 2 steals, playing 32 minutes per contest.

[67] Douglas' brother, Harry, is a former wide receiver that played with Atlanta Falcons and Tennessee Titans of the National Football League (NFL).
