1992 NBA Draft
Encyclopedia
The 1992
NBA Draft
took place on June 24, 1992, in Portland, Oregon
. At the time, the draft was considered to be one of the deepest drafts in NBA history. The top three picks (Shaquille O'Neal
, Alonzo Mourning
, Christian Laettner
) were considered can't-miss prospects. O'Neal and Mourning are likely Hall of Famers. Laettner made one All-Star game in his career and was an Olympic Gold Medalist on the 1992 Dream Team
, but did not live up to the lofty expectations set for him. All three would end up playing together on the 2004 Miami Heat
. Two other players went on to become All-Stars (Tom Gugliotta
once, Latrell Sprewell
four times) and several others had solid careers (Jimmy Jackson
, Robert Horry
, Doug Christie
, P.J. Brown, Jon Barry
, Walt Williams
, Anthony Peeler
, and Clarence Weatherspoon
). Harold Miner
, who was given the nickname "Baby Jordan" because of his similarities to Michael Jordan, slipped to number 12 and, other than winning two slam dunk contests, only had a brief, uneventful four-year career.
