June 26, 2016 marks the 20th anniversary of the 1996 NBA Draft, arguably the greatest draft class ever, featuring players as Hall of Famer Allen Iverson, Stephon Marbury, Ray Allen, Steve Nash and third all-time NBA leading scorer Kobe Bryant. These are the first round picks of that draft.
Video Rating: / 5
1996 definitely one of the top NBA draft’s of all time along with 1984, 1985, 2003.
No iverson in the pic that’s why he never won a championship lol 😂
The only bust was a knick LMMFAO
PG – Allen Iverson
SG – Kobe Bryant
C – Shareef Abdur-Rahim
SF – Peja Stojaković
PF – Antoine Walker
Crazy how this draft also produced one of the best undrafted players ever in Ben Wallace
1984 has the edge.
RIP Kobe 😢🥺😭 we love you
The 96s was legendary.🔥🔥
it's a shame Kobe and Nash didn't play with each other in their prime years that would have been sick.
In a market saturated with Nike/Adidas, came Reebok i3(iverson) and And1 Marbury. Iverson!!! 🙌
RIP Kobe!
Fun fact: Most of the class 96 has won an NBA title
In 2021, this is still the best performing draft class EVER
Rip kobe💛💜
Best draft class ever.
Epic
There random players do not take
dont forget J.O bro
Kobe Bryant and Derek Fisher will always be linked together in NBA and LAKERS history!!
Kobe Bryant was the very best of this draft class and that is saying a lot!
Thanks Charlotte, you had a once in a lifetime talent…and you traded it away 😂
🤔 What happens if a player actually shows up and doesn’t get chooses?
I can't believe they picked a high school kid. What a throw away
💜💛
