8. Gerald Glass

In the 1990 Draft, the Timberwolves selected Gerald Glass with the 20th pick.

While it may seem that Glass is high on this list, the sole reason is due to the position in which he was drafted at. Glass was taken in the top 20 and did not produce as a top 20 player.

Glass averaged 9.5 points per game with his short stint with the Timberwolves. He had his best season in 1991-92 when he averaged 11.5 points for the Timberwolves.

He even set the record for most points by a Timberwolf when he was rookie. Glass came off the bench and scored 32 points against the Los Angeles Lakers.

Glass had flashes that he would be something special but that soon faded away as time went on. He went on to play with teams such as the Detroit Pistons, New Jersey Nets and countless teams overseas as well.

Glass eventually stopped playing professional basketball by 1999. He now coaches at Madison Central High School in Mississippi.

He was a solid player in his time in the NBA but he did not live up to the 20th pick of the draft.
