redrafting the NBA

On this site, I will be redrafting each of the NBA/BAA/ABA drafts based on what we have seen through each of their careers. Draft picks are what shape a franchise. There have been many picks that we consider bad picks and reaches, and there are many that we consider good picks and steals. Many players turned out to be busts, many turned out to be way better than they were supposed to be. I will be guessing what each team would have done if they could have redone the draft and seen how each player's career shaped out to be. I won't be including players that never actually played. Remember, this is just my opinion, which may differ from yours. Hopefully, you enjoy this site.

I will be using some advanced statistics on this website that you may not know, so let me quickly explain those.

WS - Win Shares (OWS - Offensive Win Shares, DWS - Defensive Win Shares, PSWS - Postseason Win Shares); Approximately how many wins a player is responsible for.

FG+ - Adjusted FG%; League average is 100, pretty much comparing a player's field goal percentage to the league FG% at that time.

Every player listed here will have played at least one minute of professional basketball. There are a good number of players that did not end up doing that, so they will not be listed here.

If a player does not have a statistic listed, that means either that the stat was not kept track of at the time or, if the playoff stats are not listed, that player has no playoff appearances.
