Yes, before Wood became an NBA official in 1996, he was playing in the league. The Sixers selected him 10th overall in the 1984 draft and he averaged 4.1 points and 1.8 assists in just 67 games before being traded to the Washington Bullets in his second season.

The guy the Sixers could have had? John Stockton who went 15th to the Utah Jazz and went on to have a Hall of Fame career.

The reason why he isn’t higher on this list is due to the fact that the Sixers got a steal with Charles Barkley at 5th overall. Could you imagine, though? Instead of “Stockton to Malone” we would have “Stockton to Barkley”.
