Jordan, the GOAT.
Perkins 2time All-Am and one of the 1st stretch 4's before there was a stretch 4.
Daugherty, future 5 time all Star & consensus all-Am.
Kenny Smith, consensus All-Am & starter for 2 time NBA Champ,
Joe Wolf, All-ACC & 12 yr NBA vet
Dave Popson, 3 yrs NBA
Cecil Exum, future lottery pick Cecil Exum, Jr's dad
Buzz Peterson & Matt Doherty, 2 future HC's @ Power 5 colleges
And Steve Hale, who put aside a potential basketball career to become one of the state's leading doctors.
Big Smooth is always in my brain as a stretch 5 because whenever he hit a 3 the Sonics PA announcer would be like THREEEEEEE POOOOOOINTS SAAAAAAM PERRRRRRRKINNNNNNNMNS

Also, that man had to have the flattest looking 3 ever. No arc whatsoever haha it just looked like a line drive coming out of his hands.
