The 8 best second-round picks in NBA history: Arenas is only ranked fifth, and Jokic is the first to be suspenseless!

On September 3, generally speaking, the higher the pick in the NBA, the more opportunities they get in the early stage of their career, and the greater the hope of fulfilling their talents. Although some second-round picks and undrafts did not get too many opportunities in the early stage of their careers, they finally met the team's requirements through their own efforts, and eventually became the core of the team and won honors. Next, let's take a look at the 8 best second-round picks in NBA history and rank them.

Eighth Middleton

Yes, the strongest 175 on the surface was not selected. Thomas Jr. is a system player. Because of the Celtics' system, he played such excellent data. In contrast, Middleton led the team to honor. At his peak, he was Pippen by Letters. In the 21st season, Middleton scored many times at critical moments to help the team get out of danger again and again. Middleton was the No. 9 pick in the second round in 2012. His career was very successful. He was selected as the All-Star in a total of 3 careers, and he also won the Olympic gold medal in 21 years.

7th Kukochi

One of the most successful players in European history. In the 1990s, Kukochi's success in the NBA allowed more foreign players to dare to enter the NBA to prove himself. The Bulls even won three consecutive championships with his help. Kukochi once won the sixth man of the first class. At his peak, he averaged 18 points, 7 rebounds, 5.3 assists and 1.1 steals per game. He is the draft template for Gasol. If he were born in this era, he would probably be stronger, at least much better than Porzingis, and his shooting would be very good.

Sixth, Gasol, Jr.,

Jiang Jia is only ranked sixth in this level. It is estimated that many fans are already very interested in the top five. Jr. is one of the best franchise-protecting inside players in history. He once won the best defensive player with his outstanding performance and led the Grizzlies to the playoffs many times. His passing ability and high-quality pick-and-roll can also help his teammates get opportunities. He helped the Raptors win the championship in 2019. Jr. was selected as the All-Star three times, and even selected as the Best Team in 2015. He led Spain to win the silver medal in 2008 and 2012 Olympics.

Fifth Arenas

Arenas may be one of the most powerful players in the last round pick in history. He relied on his outstanding scoring firepower to become the star of the Wizards, and he also led the team to the playoffs many times with excellent performance. He was selected as an All-Star three times. He was able to compete with Kobe at his peak. This person is good at playing key balls and contributed many difficult finals. In his peak season, Arenas averaged 29.3 points, 6.1 assists and 2 steals per game. If he were born now, his firepower might be even more terrifying.

The fourth dream chase Green

The dream chase is one of the most successful second round picks in NBA history. As a second round pick, he not only became one of the Warriors' totems, but also helped the team win 4 championships. Now that the NBA can enter the small ball era, in addition to the contributions of Curry and Clay, dream chase is also indispensable. He can withstand the opponent's big center so that the team can make unlimited defense replacements. It is indeed great to win Dream Chasing Green once won DPOY, and was also selected as the All-Star 4 times and was selected as the best first defense 5 times. Although he is not very popular with fans, he has enough honors.

The third Ginobili

The Demon Sword is one of the sixth players in history. He is not able to play the sixth player, but because the Spurs is more traditional, they will let the core of the team play the role of the sixth player, so Ginobili sacrificed a lot of data and ball rights for this, but this does not hinder his greatness. He helped the Spurs win 4 championships and was selected for the championship. To be honest, Ginobili's greatest performance in his career was definitely in the Olympics. He led the team to win the Olympic gold medal, which made the Dream Team ashamed in front of him. It was so strong.

Second Rodman

Rodman is also a very successful small inside player. Because he is just a small inside player like Zhu Meng, he has not received enough recognition and became a second round pick. However, he is talented and hardworking. Rodman finally won 5 championships. Rodman has won 7 rebounding champions. He is only 2.01 meters in the 1990s when there are many giants. It is unsolvable that Rodman has won two best defensive players. He also relies on his outstanding performance to be selected and was finally selected for the Hall of Fame. He is the original form of Hanamichi Sakuragi.

The first Jokic

There will not be too many questions. After all, this person has won three regular season MVPs and 1 finals MVP. He may be the center with the best passability in history. Moreover, because of his outstanding performance, he has entered the top eight among the great historical centers selected by the US media. He is now a player in the top 30 level in history. Now Jokic is 30 years old and will win more honors in the future. Jokic can become the number one player in the league with a second round pick. It is indeed the only player in ancient times.
