Round 1, No. 18 overall

Shortly after being selected by Oklahoma City, Bledsoe was shipped to the Los Angeles Clippers for that team’s first-round pick in 2012. He went on to become a solid starter with the Phoenix Suns and Milwaukee Bucks, averaging 15.9 points per game or better in each of the past seven seasons.

Notable: Oklahoma City also drafted Iowa State forward Craig Brackins (No. 21 overall) and Washington swingman Quincy Pondexter (No. 26 overall) in the first round, then traded the pair to the New Orleans Hornets for Kansas center Cole Aldrich and veteran swingman Morris Peterson.
