20. Sam Bowie

3 seasons, 13.4 points, 8.8 rebounds, 2.3 blocks, 1.4 assists, 52% FG

Yes, Sam Bowie will be remembered as being a bust in the NBA. Yes, he was drafted before Michael Jordan. That’s because Sam Bowie was that talented when he was healthy.

Bowie was an All-SEC selection all three years he was a Wildcat while being named to the All-American team in 1980 and 1983. Despite missing two years due to a nasty leg injury he left the program as the eighth best rebounder and third best shot blocker.
