Dani ♡ Posted February 13, 2017 Posted February 13, 2017 The 2000 NBA draft is viewed throughout the NBA community as the worst in history. Provided that the top three picks in order were Kenyon Martin, Stromile Swift and Darius Miles—a trio that combined for one lone All-Star appearance—it’s not difficult to come to that conclusion. In fact, the entire 2000 draft class netted just three All-Stars. Sorry, three total All-Star appearances. Only a triplet of guys selected in 2000 went on to make one All-Star team. Even if you go all the way back to the 1952 draft, when the only player selected to make an All-Star team was Clyde Lovellette, his four All-Star berths still trump the entire 2000 class. We may look back at the lackluster 2013 draft (featuring No. 1 overall pick Anthony Bennett) in the same way, but it’s far too early to tell at this juncture. So without further ado, we’ll re-pick the stunningly underwhelming 2000 draft class based primarily on career win shares. We acknowledge this isn’t a perfect barometer, so we’ve opted to make slight tweaks to the new order—particularly at the top.
