Other notable selections include Reggie Miller, Kevin Johnson, Kenny Smith, Horace Grant, Reggie Lewis, Muggsy Bogues, and Mark Jackson. Also in this draft, current Florida Gators head men's basketball coach Billy Donovan (drafted 68th by the Utah Jazz), who led that program to NCAA Division I Men's Basketball Championships in 2006 and in 2007.
