Re: Most underrated NBA player of last 20 years
[ QUOTE ]
I'm not sure if this counts since I don't think hes underrated for what he did in the NBA. But many people don't realize how good Arvydas Sabonis really was in his prime before coming to the NBA. I've heard him described as "Shaq with the ability to pass like Magic." Many believe he would've gone down as one of the best centers ever if he had been able to legally come to the NBA earlier.

He would also lead "biggest career wrecked by injuries of the past 20 years" (Grant Hill as runner-up). It's true, he was a very effective player in the NBA about 12 years after his peak year (I'd say it was 1987-1988 or so). He's still going to end up in the Hall of Fame, btw.
