A 6'5" (1.96 m) shooting guard, Bryant was selected from the University of Virginia with the 13th overall pick by the Denver Nuggets in the 1992 NBA Draft. Bryant played eight seasons with the team before being traded to the Boston Celtics. He was also traded to the Cleveland Cavaliers and to the Los Angeles Clippers along with Andre Miller for Darius Miles. He retired before ever playing for the Clippers.
He played for the US national team in the 1990 FIBA World Championship, winning the bronze medal.[1]
Since retiring from the NBA, Stith has been involved in NASCAR, in which he owns a team with race car driver and fellow Emporia native, Hermie Sadler.
