Green Room List - NCAA

※ 引述《ilovekebi (無聊)》之銘言：

(sorry, I can't type in Chinese now.)

One famous example is Rashard Lewis.

Considered one of the top high school players in the nation after his
senior season at Alief Elsik High School and tabbed by many as their
player of the year, Lewis was seemingly a sure first-round pick when
he entered the 1998 Draft, likely by the Rockets, who held three
first-rounders that year.

Stunning the experts, Houston passed on Lewis, who was left in the
"Green Room" all alone at the start of the second round and seen
crying by viewers watching the Draft.

The Sonics finally selected Lewis with their 32nd pick.

The other example is Jumaine Jones.

He cried in 1999 after he slipped to pick No. 27.

So the NBA has actually been trying to avoid those classic made-for-TV
moments these years.
