  Jerome Kersey - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jerome Kersey (born June 26, 1962 in Clarksville, Virginia) was a professional basketball player in the National Basketball Association for a number of teams, but most notably for the Portland Trail Blazers.
Coming from a school not known as a basketball powerhouse, Kersey was not selected until late in the second round of the 1984 NBA Draft (46th overall pick) by Portland.
Kersey has since indicated that he may not return to the NBA, claiming that NBA players of the current era don't respond well to constructive criticism and must be "babied".
