The rookie of parallel imports in previous NBA drafts

There are many answers to this proposition. Every year, there are dozens of NBA rookies, and few of them can gain a foothold in the league, make a name for themselves and become superstars. I searched many famous examples of parallel imports.

First, Sam Bowie (Butler Trailblazer in 1984)

The Trailblazers chose Bowie. Missed Michael Jordan, Charles Buckley and John stockton. Even players like Sam Pape Jenkins, Kevin Wells and Michael Cage are much better than Bowie the Glass Man.

Second, Chris Washburn (Golden State Warrior in 1986)

Chris Washburn was full of five poisons. Obesity and drugs ruined his career. He played 72 games in his career and finally scored only 222 points, averaging only 3 points per game.

Third, Olovocanti (Los Angeles Clippers, No.1 pick in 1998)

Olovocanti entered the playoffs only once, averaging only 8.6 points and 7.1 rebounds per game in his career. Compared with his rookie of the same year-Mike Bibby, Vince Carter, Antoine jamison, Paul Pierce and Nowitzki, it is indeed a typical example of parallel imports.

Fourth, Joe Smith (Golden State Warriors in 1995)

He averaged 12.4 points and 7.1 rebounds in his career, and he never met people's expectations. Mike Daisy?, Garnett, stackhouse and Rasheed Wallace (the second to fourth rookie of the year) all had more successful basketball careers than Smith.

Fifth, Dennis hopson (New Jersey Nets in 1987)

He was the first player to be called "Jordan II" and eventually became a joke.

Sixth, Swift and other rookies in 2

Swift, Dalius Myers, No.4 Rookie Marcus Feazel, No.6 Rookie Demar Johnson and No.7 Rookie Chris Mihm are all losers.

Seventh, Bob Kimberly (No.8 rookie Los Angeles Clippers in 199)

As the No.8 rookie of that year, Kimberly only spent three seasons in the NBA, playing 15 professional games.

Eighth, Stephen Stipa Norwich (Indiana Pacers in 1983)

After suffering from a knee injury, Stipa Norwich retired early after playing in the NBA for five seasons.

Ninth, Kwame Brown (Washington Wizards in 21) averaged only 7.6 points and 5.7 rebounds in his career. He has excellent physical conditions, but he hasn't been enlightened for many years. Now he has replaced Olovokandi and become synonymous with "parallel champion".

Tenth, Danny Ferry (No.2 show in 1989)

Wayne Embry, the manager of the Cavaliers, must have thought it was the stupidest decision to trade Ron Harper, the scoring machine in the team, for Ferry.

Others such as Auden and Yi Jianlian can also be regarded as parallel rookies.
