Member FDIC I J The 1995 NBA Draft took from the poor and gave to the rich. A record 10 underclassmen were taken in the first round, which will make this year’s rookie class one of the best in history. Here’s a list of the first 15 draft picks and an overall draft report: 1. Golden State: Joe Smith, Maryland forward. Smith, who is easily the most talented player se lected in the draft, will bring his all-around skills to a team that surely needs him. 2. L.A. Clippers: Antonio McDyess, Alabama forward, (traded to Denver with Randy Woods for Brent Barry and Rodney Rogers) McDyess will be a good post player, but he won’t live up to his lofty #2 status. 3. Philadelphia: Jerry Stackhouse, North Carolina guard. Stackhouse has the most potential of any player in the draft and he proved his worth in lead ing the Tar Heels to the final four in March. 4. Washington: Rasheed Wallace, North Carolina forward/ center. Wallace is the most un derdeveloped player in the draft and could have used at least one more year in college. Wallace joins a very strong front line (Chris Webber, Juwan Howard and Gheorghe Muresan) with the Bullets. 5. Minnesota: Kevin Garnett, Farragut Academy (high school) forward. The Timberwolves have taken a big risk in drafting Garnett, who entered the draft as a high school senior. Garnett will either be a big star or the biggest bust in the draft in a long time. 6. Vancouver: Bryant Reeves, Oklahoma State center. Reeves carried his team to the Final Four, but could struggle with limited post skills and slow movement under the basket. 7. Toronto: Damon Stoudamire, Arizona guard. The Portland native will succeed in the NBA due to the fact that he has tremendous shooting range and strong defensive skills. 8. Portland: Shawn Respert, Michigan State guard, (traded to Milwaukie for Gary Trent) Respert is a good shooter who got many comparisons to one Earvin “Magic” Johnson. Respert will do well with Glenn Robinson and Vin Baker at his sides. 9. New Jersey: Ed O’Bannon, UCLA forward. O’Bannon was greatly overrated at UCLA, and he could be held back by recur ring knee problems. He will have a hard time bumping bodies with the big boys. O’Bannon will be a starter at New Jersey, but that’s not saying much. 10. Miami: Kurt Thomas, TCU forward. Who? That’s what a lot of NBA people said when the Heat took the number one scorer and rebounder in the na tion, although his numbers were downplayed by many who pointed to the fact that he played in the Southwest Conference. 11. Milwaukee: Gary Trent, Ohio U. forward, (traded to Port land for Shawn Respert) Trent will make an impact right away with the Trail Blazers, who are now without forwards Otis Thorpe and Jerome Kersey. Trent is small in size, but makes up for it in power and leaping ability. 12. Dallas: Cherokee Parks, Duke forward/center. Parks will fit in well with the Mavericks. 13. Sacramento: Corliss Williamson, Arkansas forward. Williamson was at his best in the NCAA Tourney, but he won't pan out in the NBA. He's too slow in side and doesn't have the skills to compete with bigger players. 14. Boston: Eric Williams, Providence forward. Williams will be a great addition to the Celtics, who deperately need a strong inside player. 15. Denver: Brent Barry, Or egon State guard, (traded to the Clippers) Barry will surprise a lot of people with great passing and ball handling skill«. Barry has what it takes to be a good 3-man in the NBA.
