Recent History of the #12 Draft Pick
NOTE: This is now edited to fix the data on the chart! Also, a ton of these guys played for Seattle in their careers!
And here, SLCDUNKers is the list for the #12 spot.
I thought this spot would suck more than it does -- a number of very good role players, and a number of actual NBA starters as well. Of course, most of the really "good" ones are from the previous 15 drafts, and not the most recent 15 drafts.
Xavier Henry, Gerald Henderson, Jason Thompson, Thaddeus Young, HIlton Armstrong, Yaroslav Korolev, Robert Swift, Nick Collison, Melvin Ely, Vladimir Radmanovic, Etan Thomas, Aleksandar Radojevic, Michael Doleac, Austin Croshere, Vitaly Potapenko, Cherokee Parks, Khalid Reeves, George Lynch, Harold Miner, Greg Anthony, Alec Kessler, Mookie Blaylock, Harvey Grant, Muggsy Bogues, John WIlliams, Kenny Green, Tim McCormick, Darrell Walker, John Bagley, Kelly Tripucka. Lots of white guys, that's an observation -- not a pejorative statement. I'd avoid taking a Euro with this pick.

No problem. I love the quick glance charts and graphs.

As a BYU fan, I still think Doleac should be bolded
He wasn’t a starter quality player, but he generally added depth to the teams he was on, and he stuck in the league for quite a while. Melvin Ely is ok too, IMHO.
Seems like #12 picks get moved a lot too. Ely’s on his 4th team, Doleac played for 6, Hilton Armstrong’s on his 5th.

I was just looking at the 2008, 2009, and 2010 drafts
And there are very few real busts in the top 15. Cole Aldrich, Joe Alexander, Hasheem Thabeet, Jonny Flynn maybe.
Other than that, they’re generally pretty solid players. A few that missed a season’s worth of time already with injury/illness but came back strong like Hansbrough and Griffin, but I think most teams would take either of them now.

Neither did Joe Alexander
Didn’t stop him from being a bust.
