Pretty neat update to DraftExpress for NBA junkies out there. You can sort statistical data by historical NBA draft picks. Sorting it by Win Share, looks like Xavier players get it done in the NBA.

Brian Grant (8th Pick) - 2nd in WS of all #8 draft picks.
Tyrone Hill (11th Pick) - 3rd in WS of all #11 draft picks.
David West (18th Pick) - 1st in WS of all #18 draft picks.
James Posey (18th Pick) - 2nd in WS of all #18 draft picks.
Jordan Crawford (27th Pick) - Falls into the 'Median' category, which is a surprise considering how bad those Wizards teams were. Does have the highest career PPG of anybody ever drafted 27th, though.
Lionel Chalmers (33rd Pick) - One of the worst win shares of all 33rd picks. He played sparingly for 1 season on an awful Clippers team and I honestly forgot he was ever drafted.
Derrick Brown (40th Pick) - Not listed. Also a surprise considering he was on that Bobcats team which is considered one of the worst in NBA history.
Derek Strong (47th Pick) - 5th in WS of all #47 draft picks.

Grant, Hill, West, Posey: either great "values" in their slots or sorely underrated on draft night.

Would definitely classify West as "underrated". If you re-do his draft, he goes 5th behind Lebron, Melo, Wade and Bosh. Not too shabby.
