Can you think of a worse draft class?
Who was the best player from this draft? Michael Redd? (43rd pick not even shown) Kenyon Martin? Jamal Crawford?

I can’t. That was a horrible first rd. Maybe the 2nd rd had studs. I’d have to check

To put it simply, it's easily the worst draft of all time. It was full of busts and only had a total of 3 all-star selections combined between Redd, K-Mart, and Magloire. 0 all-NBA selections. Jamal Crawford, Hedo, Q-Rich, and Mike Miller were also solid but that's it. No other players are even worthy of a mention. Garbage ass draft, I hope we never see anything like that again.

Michael Redd was the best player and he was picked 43rd lmao. So was Jokic although he’s obviously much better than Redd.

No perennial all stars or all time greats but K-Mart, Crawford and Redd were nothing to sneeze at …

hahaha Mark Madsen is legendary idk what you're talking about :lol

In seriousness though, there are a lot of decent role players. Brezec was actually solid for the pacers for many years but dealt with some injury issues. Mo Pete had some memorable shots for the Raptors. Przybilla and Thomas were solid defensively for years. Q Rich was nasty with that Suns team...great 3rd or 4th best player on a squad gunning for a chip. Hedo had clutch shots in multiple playoff runs. The other guys yall mentioned too...again pretty solid. No real standouts except maybe Kenyon and a couple years from Redd

Not even close to the worst. Sure, no mega stars or HOF but a bunch of good starting caliber players and role players. I’d say it’s a good depth draft, just not high end or top heavy. Middling but far from the worst.

And then you follow up wit a draft class that was worst. Or are you still googling it?

Exactly... Provide us with a worse draft class.

Not even close to the worst? No, you're wrong. Name a worse draft

As far as the best player, I take Jamal Crawford. Never was an all-star like Magloire, Martin or Redd but was 6th man of the year 3x and played forever. More career earnings than anyone else in this draft.

Michael Redd = Chris Middleton

It was pretty bad. What's crazy is it has no franchise players in it at all. Not a single player in that draft that the team that drafted him were "building around him" as their top level talent. I'm not sure there is another draft class that has no franchise players like that.
