So I'm really high on this upcoming draft and am mostly finished with my Big Board and have come up away with one thought.

Factoring in Injuries, bad team fits, off-the-court issues there's just no way there aren't at least 25 dudes in this draft who will be playing quality rotational minutes on an NBA team for at least 5 years.

So with that in mind, I went and checked out each Draft since 2000 and counted the number of players that have played quality minutes in a rotation for AT LEAST a 5-year span in the NBA give or take a couple of fringe guys. This is what I came up with…

'00 --- 12 '01 --- 17 '02 --- 12 '03 --- 25 '04 --- 20 '05 --- 21 '06 --- 15 '07 --- 20 '08 --- 23 '09 --- 20 '10 --- 20 '11 --- 24 '12 --- 16 '13 --- 16 '14 --- 20 '15 --- 20 '16 --- 16 '17 --- 18 '18 --- 24 '19 --- 23 '20 --- 22 '21 --- 21 '22 --- 19

Came to the conclusion… 15-18 rotational dudes = BAD DRAFT 19-22 rotational dudes = AVG DRAFT 23+ rotational dudes = GREAT DRAFT

Is this a historic NBA Dr…
