The Admiral is not only the best player to emerge from the NBA's 1987 draft class, but he's also one of the best centers to ever play the game.
San Antonio selected David Robinson with the first overall pick in the draft and the Navy Midshipman rewarded the Spurs with 14 years of service.
During that time, he won an MVP award, two championships and numerous berths on exclusive award-based teams. Robinson was even one of the 50 players honored with a selection to the NBA's 50th Anniversary All-Time Team.
Now in the Hall of Fame, Robinson is one of just two players, Kareem Abdul-Jabaar being the other, to lead the league in scoring, rebounding and blocking at various points throughout his career. All in all, the center averaged 21.1 points, 10.6 rebounds and 3.0 blocked shots per game.
