Gary Anthony Voce (born November 24, 1965) is a retired American-Jamaican basketball player. He played collegiately at the University of Notre Dame.[1][2]

A 6'9" and 240 lb forward, Voce had two stints with the Cleveland Cavaliers. He was a member of the team for three months during the 1988–89 season but did not appear in a regular season game.[3] He was named to Cleveland's roster at the start of the following season to replace an injured Chris Dudley.[4] He played in one regular season game for the Cavaliers in a 100–92 road loss against the Washington Bullets on November 10, 1989. He scored 2 points in 4 minutes.[5] He was waived by the Cavaliers when Dudley returned from injury shortly thereafter.[6] In 1990, he played for the Westside Melbourne Saints in the National Basketball League (NBL).[7] Voce was playing for the Harrisburg Hammerheads of the Continental Basketball Association (CBA) when the team folded in 1996. He was not picked up by any other teams in the CBA's dispersal draft.[8]
