Vernon Scheavalie "Schea" Cotton (born May 20, 1978) is an American former professional basketball player.
He was highly touted as a high school player, when he seemed destined to play professionally in the National Basketball Association (NBA).
He played 10 years professionally, but never reached the NBA. Growing up in the Los Angeles metropolitan area, Cotton was physically mature beyond his years.
He gained national exposure before even playing in high school.
The interest level in his prep career was arguably as high as any player ever.
Due to disputes over his entrance examination scores with the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA), his college basketball career was delayed two years.
After a lawsuit with the NCAA was settled, Cotton played one season with Alabama.
He decided to forego his final two years of college eligibility to enter the 2000 NBA draft, but he went undrafted.
Cotton played professionally for 10 years, both domestically as well as in numerous foreign countries.
After retiring as a player, he became a basketball coach and trainer for young players.
