Gilbert Arenas and Michael Redd are probably the biggest steals. Also, let's not forget about Kobe. Guys like Vitaly Potapenko,Todd Fuller,Samaki Walker,and Erik Dampier were all picked before Kobe...I'd call that a steal.An even bigger steal was Jerry West trading Divac for him
lol, hey did someone say manu? jj Drazen Petrovic number 50 something maybe it was 60 even yup it was number 60 i looked it up number 60During four-year NBA career, averaged 15.4 ppg on 50.6 percent shooting22.3 ppg on 51.8 percent shooting from the floor, including 44.9 percent from 3-point range, in 1992-93
Great topic discussion guys and you have mentioned some great draft steals but a couple have been left out...Maurice Williams,47th in the 2003 NBA draftToni Kukoc ,29th overall in the 1990 NBA draftCliff Robinson ,36th overall in the 1989 NBA draftNick Van Exel,37th overall in the 1993 NBA draftMaurice Williams,47th in the 2003 NBA draftBobby Simmons,42nd overall in the 2001 NBA draftRonald Murray,42nd overall in the 2002 NBA draftAndrei Kirilenko,24th overall in the 2000 NBA draftDarius Songaila,50th overall in the 2002 NBA draftKyle Korver,51st overall in the 2003 NBA draftZa Za Pachulia,42nd overall in the 2003 NBA draftRafer Alston,39th pick overall in the 1998 NBA draftThose were just a couple guys who were good pickups for their orginization. The reason I placed Kirilenko on my list is simply for the fact that this guy was very underrated by scouts because of his lack of muscle and many doubted that this guy could play defense,but we all know how that turned out.The rest of my guys have all been second round picks who have shined and have been steals in the NBA and every player on my list still has a contract with an NBA team which shows how good those draft picks have become.
