The Celtics drafted a waterboy. The Kings drafted Bruce Jenner. The Lakers attempted to select Scooby Doo and a wooden chair in the 7th round, which the league voided. The 76ers drafted a pharmacist a few years later. Harris was perhaps the most normal selection between the outliers, as she averaged 25.9 PPG & 14.4 RPG during her college career at Delta State โ€” also making the Naismith Memorial Basketball Hall of Fame. Needless to say, the NBA realized there were way too many rounds in the draft. It took over 12 changes for a massive overhaul, finally cutting down to just 2 rounds in 1989. The draft selection process has been altered FIVE times: โฃ 1947-1959 & 1961-1967: ๐ˆ๐ง๐Ÿ๐ข๐ง๐ข๐ญ๐ž โฃ 1960 & 1968: ๐Ÿ๐Ÿ ๐‘๐จ๐ฎ๐ง๐๐ฌ 1974-1976 & 1978-1984: ๐Ÿ๐ŸŽ ๐‘๐จ๐ฎ๐ง๐๐ฌ 1977: ๐Ÿ– ๐‘๐จ๐ฎ๐ง๐๐ฌ 1985-1988: ๐Ÿ• ๐‘๐จ๐ฎ๐ง๐๐ฌ 1989-Present: ๐Ÿ ๐‘๐จ๐ฎ๐ง๐๐ฌ โฃ (๐Ÿ“ธ: nba_heaven_) โฃ #WontBowDown โšœ๏ธ ## Stats - **Views:** 0 - **Likes:** 2,887 - **Shares:** 0 - **Comments:** 21 ## Tags wontbowdown --- Copyright (c) Gondola
