b) Grant Hill

Phoenix Suns v Los Angeles Lakers, Game 2
Grant Hill

Grant Hill took the NBA career by storm winning rookie of the year. While playing for Pistons in 1996-97, Hill averaged 21.4PPG, 9.0RPG, and 7.3APG. He was named to the first team All-NBA for the first and only time in his career that season. After his move to Orlando next season, the Magic had high hopes of teaming Hill and Tracy McGrady but Hill went on to play only 47 games in a 4-year span because of chronic ankle issues. Hill finished his career as a solid defensive player with the Phoenix Suns and the LA Clippers but he had potential to be one of the greatest players of his generation.
