Chris Kaman, the 6th pick from the 2003 NBA Draft. The Clippers curse extended to draft positioning that year: the 5 players taken ahead of Kaman were LeBron James, Darko Milicic, Carmelo Anthony, Chris Bosh, and Dwayne Wade. Aside from the bust that Darko became, the rest of the top 5 will likely end up in the Hall of Fame. At 6, however, Kaman was almost certainly the right choice: he went on to be a quality starter and All-Star center as a Clipper, where the rest of the players from that draft class who carved out long careers were mostly role players, with the exception of David West (pick 18).
