Tremaine Fowlkes : biography

April 11, 1976 –

Tremaine Fowlkes (born April 11, 1976 in Los Angeles, California) is an American former professional basketball player at the small forward position. Fowlkes was drafted out of Fresno State by the Denver Nuggets with the 54th pick of the 1998 NBA Draft, though he did not make an NBA on-court appearance until the 2001-02 season. He has played for the Los Angeles Clippers (two seasons), Detroit Pistons (one season, winning the 2003-04 championship) and Indiana Pacers (one season) of the NBA, averaging 3 points and 2.2 rebounds in 103 career games. He also appeared for the New Orleans Hornets during the 2004 preseason.

Fowlkes was one of three players (the others being Britton Johnsen and Marcus Haislip) signed to pro-rated one-year contracts in the immediate aftermath of the Pacers–Pistons brawl on November 19, 2004, which devastated the Pacers’ already banged-up lineup with the suspensions of their three best players, Ron Artest, Jermaine O’Neal and Stephen Jackson.
