Perry, and Greg Graham. During a 1995 game featuring Coleman's Nets and rival Karl Malone's Utah Jazz, Coleman controversially referred to Malone as an 'Uncle Tom'. In 1999, Coleman signed with the Charlotte Hornets. In 2001, he was reacquired by the Philadelphia 76ers in a three-team trade involving the Golden State Warriors, where the Hornets acquired Chris Porter, Robert Traylor, George Lynch, and Jérôme Moïso. He played for the US national team in the 1994 FIBA World Championship, winning the gold medal. In 2004, Coleman and Amal McCaskill were traded to the Detroit Pistons for Corliss Williamson. The 2004–05 season would be Coleman's last, as he was cut by the team in January 2005. He was one of nine NBA players that faced suspension for his role in the infamous November 2004 Pacers–Pistons brawl. Coleman is one of only three players in NBA history to record a five-by-five in a game with at least 20 points and 10 rebounds (the other two being Hakeem Olajuwon and Draymond Green). Post NBA Coleman purchased a home in Franklin Lakes, New Jersey, where he resided until 2010, when he moved to Detroit. After the water crisis began in Flint, Michigan, Coleman drove 65 miles daily to bring residents clean bottled water and eating utensils, which they did not have access to.
