After Marquette, Boone was selected in the fourth round of the 1987 NBA Draft - the 77th overall pick - by the Denver Nuggets. 
He was selected before future NBAers Jack Haley (4th/UCLA), Dave Popson (4th/UNC), Ronnie Grandison (5th) and Sarunas Marciulionis (6th).

He was an inaugural member of the Calgary 88's in the World Basketball League. His 88's reached the league finals three times.
