Amazing how fast he flamed out after S.A. Had a decent season with the Mavs and didn't really play in Washington
You're on a roll. Any other second round picks you'd like to predict won't be all stars?

Spurs basically got 4 years of solid play for less than $4 million dollars, he flamed out after leaving the Spurs but had a pretty good career overall.
Drom looked it up last year, but even with him essentially being done for four years now, Blair is 18th in the 2009 draft in terms of win-shares, and he's sixth in terms of WS/48. As a Spur, DeJuan played like a top lottery pick. Nowadays, he's fallen down to a mid-first. But even with him not playing, he's not likely to ever be lower than 30, as most of the guys who are under him aren't even playing anymore.
There were things that the Spurs could have done differently during that draft, such as taking Patty and Wes Matthews over McClinton and De Colo. But drafting Blair isn't one of them. They're only mistake with DeJuan was not trading him during the 2012 draft when the Warriors were supposedly offering the pick they ended up using on Draymond and the Heat were offering up a pick that could have been used on a superior player
Dejuan always has his singing career to fall back on
"bust" pick at #37
