- Some 2003 NBA Draft picks would go on to have great careers, while others are either too injury prone or just couldn't figure things out quick enough to survive in the league. Today we go over what exactly happened to the top 10 picks from the 2003 NBA Draft. We cover how their basketball careers went along with where they are today whether it be in their personal lives or still having to do with basketball!

That Darko Milicic pick is the exact reason why teams haven't been high on Europeans like Jokic and Luka when they first entered the league.
Naw Luka was effected by Mario Hezonja and Jokic was just not viewed as a good prospect..because Barg was a first overall pick , porzingis, Jan Vesely , Dragan Bender all was drafted high after Darko
Luka was a top 5 pick tho
@@kevinblackjr7633everyone names is a top 7 pick blud
@@kevinblackjr7633 He should've been #1. The Suns and Kings messed up bad
Not true European players still always got drafted in first round not all of em of coarse but some would go
The quality of this vid doesn't match your sub count. No BS, none of the salesman tone, no overly personal takes. This is some quality stuff broski!
Appreciate it!
Don’t forget living legend Jermaine O’Neal was also part of that 96 draft!
You right you right
@@SweatbandSports good vid tho!
The 1996 class was so loaded that there’s even a free agent HOF caliber player, Ben Wallace.
@@jpmnky1984 had top 5 players at damn near every position.
@@SweatbandSports Hi SweatbandSports. Do you think Lebron can win one more championship? I feel like he can play until he like 45 or something.
I appreciate the guys who retired early from this draft class. They may have retired early in their careers but some of them are happy after retirement, and some of them became still involved in Basketball to teach and share to the youngins what they know for the sport that they love. Much Respect.
That 03 top 5 draft basically had 1 for each position. You had Lebron, Wade, Melo, Bosh, and Darko(if his career actually worked out).
Darko can never really recover from his first two seasons of not getting any play times at all, he basically wasted 2 years for playing almost zero competitive basketball games. I've been blaming Larry Brown for ruining his career.
Darko wasn't even interested in basketball in reality
@@petesmart1983I wouldn’t ether if I was paid millions to sit on a bench.
Don’t forget Kaman and Heinrich at 6 and 7 that year.
Too many forwards, no true PG or no true center. Now the 84 draft had every position. Mike and Stockton as the guards. Barkley, Hakeem and Perkins or Bowie as the forwards and centers.
The first 9:35 of this made me forget this is a video about the entire 03 class lol
It was a good draft class even players like kaman had good careers
Dude your analysis are onpoint amd top ntch, but for a guy up to his fiirst 100k I would recomend content to be shorter, but overall even right now you are at same level as some of my other fav nba content creators youtubers!
Thanks! What do you mean first 100k though?
@@SweatbandSportsI think he means for someone under 100k
(Idk though so I take it with a grain of salt.)
Bro he’s actually got views. What do you have? Your opinion literally means nothing hahahahah
@@SweatbandSports I ment on the way to first 100 k subscribers.
Just put the videos on 2x speed
Atleast Darko won a championship 😅
a great video, thanks a lot.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I like your analysis bro
Thank you!
huge shout out to bosh man, great team player
Very unselfish deserves to be a HOF
Jarvis should have been a Koby or Wade type of player. He had all the talent and work ethic just the not the IT factor that makes great.
He had potential
Classic class I digg it
Just came here to say that Chris Kamen gave me one of my favorite fantasy team names of all time:
Kamen your face!
😂😂
1/3 of the way through and I forgot that this wasn't just a LeBron video but the entire draft class haha
Kirk Heinrich a throwback player fr. Feels like he should be a coach or commentator after he played in the 90s but he’s just an early 2000s NBA player. Transitioning between eras.
Good video, but the LeBron entry was too long for a top ten tier. Wayyyyyyy to long.
Most accomplished player we might ever cover on the top 10 draft picks
That's the point. We all know who LBJ is and what he keeps doing. With 3 minutes each would do. At some point I even forgot was a list and thought it was another LBJs biography.
Skip Bayless and david portnoy agrees😭
Darko, I heard, was a GOAT level farmer.
Loved Kirk, so underrated.❤
If Lebron had sucked more like MJ did in His early years , maybe the Cavs could have gotten better draft picks. Like the bulls did after MJ kept losing.
Bulls made the playoffs every single season from MJ’s rookie year meanwhile Lebron missed the playoffs his 1st 2 years. Their highest pick was in fact the 8th in the lottery considering they were a minimum 8th seed in the East everytime. By far the best pick they got was in fact Pippen in the 87 draft at 5th from a swap, which didn’t have much to do with their record, also that year they went .480, better record than Lebron had in his rookie year of .412. Their only other notable pick # was 5th from another swap where they got no one notable.
Basically, your comment is factually incorrect and senseless. Jordan made the playoffs every year and the little picks that lead to notable players like Pippen had nothing to do with their previous season record.
In summary: he never sucked.
Oh and Jordan’s early averages also shit on Lebrons so I wouldn’t go down that path either.
@@amilcarsafeca7629d1 mj rider
Lol you must be young, the Bulls actually made the playoffs unlike LeBrons first two years...
Lots of 12 year olds liked this lol
@@Bino9898 Lots of grey bald 45+ hate this.
from nba player to farmer is just wild
7:39 Zaza is the MAN
Can you do 90s draft class?
I’ll see what I can do, already have more of the 2000’s in the works. Would have to be after that!
Lots of them are not begging for respect to the
NBA fans and not paying peers to adevrtise that le fluff is a GOAT.
It’s true he gave me 50k to make this vid
That lebron on hes rookie season is long Gone!
how did the pistons get that 2nd pick again? as i could remember, they were like top 3 seeded the season before the draft
Traded Otis Thorpe to the Grizzlies. They also “promised” Carmelo they were going to select him, but then changed their minds according to Melo
A trade made in 1997, Top1 protected
I Detroit would've taken Melo, Kiki would've drafted Darko. If the Nuggets would've gotten the second pick, Kiki would've drafted Darko too. He had justcome off of drafting Skitta, and he was enamored with the Euros. The Nuggets were lucky to get the third pick Dumars saved Kiki from himself.
This class would be a top pick if all classes were put against each other. Have all positions.
I got 96
Since labron has been with the lakers he has not been injured a lot for his whole career he has been hurt once as far as I can remember
Respectfully you might want to look at every single season he’s played with the Lakers except 2019-20. He’s missed some time each year with injuries.
🤡🤡
Carmelo and coach Larry brown would be butting heads if Detroit drafted Carmelo instead of darko. So I highly doubt they will have a dynasty or even at least one championship together.
Melo had everything Lebron had plus a jump shot. Melo could score on 5 levels while Lebron was only a 2 level scorer.
Facts I was there I remember
Melo was robbed of he rookie of the year.
@@henny6566 tell em
Goat James
🐐 🐐
Captain kirk wow.
I think whoever Detroit picks would be ruined for the first few years. They had already formed a team and really every player was wasted player for that year. They gambled with him. Young, left-handed and had raw talent. They hoped it would be valuable and prosper for years. Now that he was not clear in his head and that he was lazy, that is another problem. For some reason Detroit kept trying European centers in those years. I guess because of the price. Rebrača, Varda, Okur, Milićić...
I honestly believe whoever went to Detroit was going to be a flop. The mentality back then for a contender wasn’t to give time to a rookie.
How could Chauncey say that when D-Wade dismantled them the year b4
Only melo not reach nba finals sad but true
I like your content man but you dont need to read a whole paragraph quote everytime. The key points should be enough. Keep it up though!
Thanks for the tip, will adjust in the next video for you👍
If I play this at 2X speed, you sound like Ben Shapiro
Uncle Ben😮 just saw him the other day
We know LBJ
Should know almost everyone on the list
When will Melo get in the HOF?
You forgot to mention Him joining forces with 2 future HOF but did not forgot to praise his opponents. What a bias take.
21:24 Shaq is indeed black.
Carmelo is arguably a bust
Avenged their loss from 2007? And couldn’t be lucky the following year? Yeah exact word there LUCK they wouldn’t have won at all in 2013 if it wasn’t for Ray Allen. Nothing to do with James or anyone. It was a role player that saved LeBron and Co to win in 2013
Controversial moves in NBA history???? Are you sure about that lol
How was it not? At the time he was public enemy #1 at least in Cleveland because of that decision.
First comment first like first view
🤝
LeBron might be a dummy off the court but no arguing only Jordan has been better on the court
😂😂goofy lol
I think James is one of the all time great but he is NOT the goat because he made a 3 game final come back one time does not make him the best ever 11 championships is the best Bill Russell 2nd is two 3 peat repeat you all know who he is just saying lol
With the benefit of hindsight there’s no way LeBron wrote that “coming home” letter in 2014. The guy can barely read. He’s proven that much.
I enjoy listening to him list his favorite football/soccer players
LeBron didn’t deserve that ROTY
Most dumbest shit I’ve read
Most busts in a draft class ever
