1991 Star Pics #19 Alvaro Teheran

After playing at Houston Baptist, Alvaro Teheran played basketball for the University of Houston in 19989-90 and 1990-91. In those 2 seasons he scored 591 points as a Cougar. He also led the team in blocked shots in 1990-91 with 1.8 per game.

For his efforts, Alvaro was named 2nd Team All Southwest Conference and SWC All-Defensive Team in 1991

He was selected by the Philadelphia 76ers in the second round of the 1991 NBA Draft, but did not play in the NBA.

Today's card is the 1991 Star Pics #19. It is also available in autographed and medallion variations.

Several new companies and products featuring only draft picks and prospects hit the stores around this time. I love these products because I'm a bigger fan of college sports than pro sports, but I understand that I'm in the minority.
