Wayne Carlander is a retired American basketball player for the USC Trojans. A 6'6" power forward, Carlander finished his four-year career with 1,524 points and 767 rebounds in 116 games played. He led the Trojans in scoring for three straight seasons (1983–85) and, as a senior, was named the Pac-10 Conference Men's Basketball Player of the Year. He was also the team captain for his junior and senior years.
