1995 NBA Draft
Encyclopedia
The 1995
NBA Draft
took place on June 28, 1995 at SkyDome
in Toronto, Ontario
, Canada. It marked the first NBA draft for the two Canadian expansion teams, Toronto Raptors
and Vancouver Grizzlies
. Kevin Garnett
, who was taken fifth in this draft, is notable for being the first player in two decades to be selected straight out of high school
, and will likely be in the Basketball Hall of Fame
after retirement. Rasheed Wallace
and Jerry Stackhouse
also had
successful careers, being four-time and two-time All-Stars respectively. Wallace won an NBA championship in 2004 with the Detroit Pistons
, while Stackhouse scored the most total points in the league in 2000, also with the Pistons.
The other remaining top selections had relatively productive careers, but were considered to have never reached their full potential. Joe Smith put up solid, but unspectacular numbers throughout his career and is generally considered a disappointment for a first overall selection. He was also involved in a salary cap scandal with the Minnesota Timberwolves
. Antonio McDyess
was a one-time All-Star, but serious and continuing knee injuries decreased much of his effectiveness in the prime of his career. Damon Stoudamire
was the 1995-96 NBA Rookie of the Year and had a solid career although he was arrested, suspended and fined several times for marijuana
possession. Bryant Reeves
impressed early in his career but a season after being granted a six-year, $61.8 million contract extension, his numbers went down due to weight and back problems and he retired after only playing six NBA seasons.
This draft was also notable for two of the biggest busts in NBA history, Ed O'Bannon
and Shawn Respert
. O'Bannon had received national accolades for leading the UCLA Bruins
to the NCAA Championship
, but only played two years in the NBA. Respert played only four seasons in the NBA, while secretly hiding that he was suffering from stomach cancer
