Decent list.

Wes Matthews and Mike James are two other guys I can think of that belongs on the list.

From wiki

By 1974, it had stabilized to 10 rounds, which held up until 1985, when the draft was shortened to seven rounds. By agreement with the National Basketball Players Association, the drafts from 1989 onward have been limited to two rounds, which gives undrafted players the chance to try out for any team.



It would be rather surprising if too many good players made the NBA when there were 10 or even 7 rounds.

The great Bulls player 'Pete Myers' barely missed the list cause he was drafted in the 6th round of the 1986 draft

Uh, Wes Matthews?

Oh didn't see the date. Still was like a 15 ppg player by then.

John Starks was a better individual player than Bruce Bowen.
