FRISCO, TX - The Texas Legends have announced the next edition of their virtual Pursuing Excellence event featuring special guest Matt Doherty.

Doherty experienced success in basketball from an early age, winning a state championship in high school before becoming a starter on the 1982 North Carolina Tarheels' National Championship team (alongside Michael Jordan, James Worthy, Sam Perkins, and Jimmy Black). The Long Island native has served in various facets of the game of basketball throughout his career, spending a majority of his time as a college coach.
