2003 NBA Redraft
All 58 picks from the 2003 NBA Draft re-ordered by career value — an even blend of Win Shares and VORP (Basketball-Reference). LeBron James (originally the 1st pick) goes first overall in the redraft; the biggest lottery-level steal is Kyle Korver, taken 51st and now #6. Each slot keeps the team that originally held it.
