The 2003 draft class produced four of the best players in the NBA over the coming decade. LeBron James went 1st and is regarded by many as being 2nd only to Michael Jordan in NBA history. James has won 3 NBA championships, is a 13-time All-Star, won 4 MVPs and a scoring title in 2008.

Carmelo Anthony went 3rd and is one of the greatest scorers in the modern era. Melo is a 10-time All-Star and won the scoring title in 2013. Dwyane Wade who went 5th is arguably the 3rd greatest SG of all-time. Wade is a 3-time NBA champion, 12-time All-Star and won a scoring title in 2009. Chris Bosh went 4th and was an 11-time All-Star and a 2-time NBA champion.

While this class is mainly remembered for the aforementioned foursome, there were a few other All-Stars as well. Chris Kaman, David West, Josh Howard, Mo Williams and Kyle Korver would all feature at the glamour event.
