#8 Udonis Haslem
Udonis Haslem went undrafted in 2002 largely due to his weight. He weighed over 300 pounds and had to play in France for a year. After losing over 70 pounds during the course of the year, he joined the Miami Heat in 2003 and has been with the franchise ever since.
He earned All-Rookie 2nd team honors in 2004, no shame in coming in the 2nd team that year, with LeBron, Wade, Melo and Bosh in the 1st team. He continued to improve as the years went by and had his best season in 2007-08, averaging 12 Points and 9 Rebounds. Haslem has been a great role player for the Heat over the years, providing solid defense and rebounding. He's also remained effective on offense thanks to a solid mid-range game.
