There are obvious ones, such as LeBron, Tim Duncan, Hakeem, and Shaq (although I’ve even heard some people claim that Shaq underachieved for a #1 pick).

But I’m curious exactly how many actually have lived up to their #1 pick status. There are some legends like Iverson and Kyrie that you could even question. Curious to hear people’s opinions on this, especially with Victor now in the league.

    So what, your definition of a no.1 pick that actually lived up to their draft position is what, a top 10 player of all time?

      Yea, like what is this post? There’s only 10 spots in the top 10 but expects all 70ish number 1 picks in history to be top 10.
