NBA's All-Coulda Been team

Some of the greatest basketball talents who could have been all-time NBA greats if not for serious injuries or tragedies.

  • Point guards: Penny Hardaway, Derrick Rose
  • Guards: Reggie Lewis, Brandon Roy, Drazen Petrovic
  • Forwards: Len Bias, Grant Hill
  • Bigs: Bill Walton, Ralph Sampson
  • These nine players in their primes would make quite a team. Even in today's modern NBA, they'd dominate. For the record I didn't think too hard on this, so I likely missed some key guys. Some players I omitted because despite having their primes shortened they still had a good stretch like T-Mac and Yao Ming.
