Second-round picks in the NBA draft have developed into some of the league's most valuable, reliable and productive players in recent years. Among players who were drafted in the second round since 2000, 15 have played in at least one All-Star Game and 10 made an All-NBA team, according to ESPN Research.

The NBA Draft is officially here, as the first round begins on Wednesday night. That means we’ve come to the end of a long process of scouting, intel work and evaluation while entering the team-building portion of the offseason.
