College career
McNeill played at college basketball at Marquette University, with the Warriors.
Professional career
McNeill was drafted in the second round of the 1973 NBA draft, by the Kansas City–Omaha Kings, and would play with the franchise until 1976.[1] That year, he was traded to the New York Nets, for a third-round draft pick. In 1977, he signed as a free agent with the Golden State Warriors. The following two years, he signed as a free agent with the Buffalo Braves and Detroit Pistons. McNeil also suited up for several teams in the Philippine Basketball Association, once scoring a then record 88 points, in one local game, in 1983. He also spent several seasons in the Continental Basketball Association with the Wilkes-Barre Barons, Utica Olympics, and Rochester Zeniths.[2]
McNeill continues to hold the NBA record for the most field goals in a playoff game without a miss, going 12 for 12 in a playoff game in 1975, with the Kings.
