Terrell Brandon (born May 20, 1970 in Portland, Oregon) is a former basketball player in the NBA. He attended the University of Oregon and was selected 11th overall in the 1991 NBA Draft by the Cleveland Cavaliers. Brandon spent the first six years of his career in Cleveland, and was selected to play in the All Star game in 1996 and 1997. After playing for the Cavaliers, Brandon played two years for the Milwaukee Bucks before being traded to the Minnesota Timberwolves. By this point, Brandon was considered one of the best point guards in the game. However, he was always plagued by injuries and on February 13, 2002, he was placed on the injury list by the Timberwolves, from which he did not return.
On July 23, 2003 Brandon was traded to the Atlanta Hawks for salary cap purposes. He was waived by the Hawks on February 17, 2004, two years after his last game, and on March 9 he announced his retirement. Brandon finished his career averaging 13.8 points, three rebounds, 6.1 assists and 1.58 steals per game, and came within six points of scoring 10,000 in his career. His career-high for assists registered in a game was 16, which he accomplished five times.
