Scott Skiles. 9. player. 89. . Round 1. Pick 22 (1986)

Scott Skiles isn’t one of the best scorers to come out of Michigan State, but he is one of the best shooters. His career three-point shooting percentage of 37.9% is just a hair better than Morris Peterson, and Skiles got it done from the free throw line at an 88.9% clip for his NBA career.

Skiles was a great shooter but was also a good distributor of the basketball. He averaged 6.5 assists per game for his career and still holds the NBA record for most assists in a game with 30 – a record that has stood since he set it in 1990.
