If you wanna say who was the best player to ever come out of the ACC, I think some d00d named Jordan wins.

If you wanna say who was the best player ever to play in the ACC, then David Thompson wins easily. Jordan was considered a very good college basketball player, but really blossomed in the NBA. No one thought he was going to become what he did.

My All Best to come out of the ACC team
C Tin Duncan Wake Forrest
F Walter Davis UNC (barely over Billy Cunningham)
F David Thompson NC State
G Michael Jordan UNC
G Mark Price Ga Tech (sorry Phil Ford, Price was a better pro)

Here's a link to a story on the All ACC 50 year team. Some amazing players in there.
