Andrew Toney, who was Cheeks' backcourt partner for much of the 1980s, accompanied the new Sixers head coach to all of the workouts.
Toney was one of the league's first shooting guards with the strength to overpower his man in the low post.
Toney retired in 1988 at the age of 30, having earned two trips to the all-star game and averaged more points per game in the playoffs (17.4) than the regular season (15.9).

Channing Toney was the man at Brookwood, but his freshman season with the Georgia men’s basketball team was a major change.
Toney still isn’t the go-to scorer — he’s one of five Bulldogs in double figures with a 10.8 average, which is third on the team — but he’s one of the team’s most valuable players, averaging a team-high 27.2 minutes.
Toney has made 85.2 percent of his attempts from the line this season after making 91.0 percent as a true freshman, the first Bulldog since Joe Ward to top 90 percent with a minimum of 50 attempts.

Nevertheless, what made Toney one of the decades most dominant players was his ability to raise his game when the stakes were high.
The Sixers loved to run isolation plays on the wing for Andrew, where his cat quick first step would be the blueprint for future guards Tim Hardaway and Allen Iverson.
Toney stayed in the league for 3 more seasons hobbling along never staying healthy and far from the memories of the offensive dominance and brilliance of his earlier years.

 ‘Boston Strangler’ could be key addition for Sixers (phillyBurbs.com) | Tom Moore
With the imminent hiring of backcourt partner Toney to his Sixers staff, this is another example of the unselfishness Cheeks displayed in 15 years as an NBA point guard.
Toney was one heck of a weapon.With his 6-3, 200- pound body, which was big for a shooting guard in the early 1980s, Toney abused smaller defenders because he could score inside and outside.
Toney, who has been living in suburban Atlanta, could be here as soon as Monday for the start of workouts for potential draft picks such as Florida’s Matt Walsh, a Germantown Academy graduate.

A great 76er who had a great local nickname - The Boston Strangler Toney was regarded by Barkley as one of the greatest 2 guards he ever saw.
Toney was awesome for a few years, but a short career does not a 5-star rating make.
Barkley said that Toney was the only player on the 85 sixers that he was in awe of - and that team included Moses, Dr. J, Bobby Jones, etc. Danny Ainge used to have nightmares about him.

 Pro Basketball - Feature: 12/18/96 From The Mining Company
Tversky and his colleagues tracked every shot the Sixers took and looked at whether any players were more likely to make a shot after they made their previous one.
For example, the Sixers were often lead by the so-called streaky shooter, Andrew Toney, but Toney was statistically more likely to make a shot after missing one than after making one.
Although most people considered Toney streaky, the statistics that people like Hubie Brown cling to didn't support that conclusion.

Then, point guards ran offenses, ignited defenses and made certain that Toney was provided with shooting opportunities without robbing Erving of his entitled chances to entertain.
Now, he has to win with the mystery that is Iverson, an aging Webber, the flimsy-handed Samuel Dalembert, the statuesque Kyle Korver and the developing Andre Iguodala.
