Our next two players on the list will always be connected to each other more than just the fact that they both wore Carolina Blue.

Antawn Jamison was drafted by the Toronto Raptors but was traded to the Golden State Warriors. In return, the Warriors traded the draft rights to Jamison’s former Tar Heel teammate Vince Carter to Toronto.

Jamison would not play a full season until 2000-2001, a year when he showed what he was capable of. The former Tar Heel averaged 24.9 points and 8.7 rebounds per game, as his production showed that he had a bright future ahead.

During that season, he became the first player to score 50 or more points in back-to-back games since another Tar Heel, of course, Michael Jordan, accomplished the feat in 1986-87.

After a brief stint in Dallas, Jamison found a home in Washington, as he spent six seasons with the Wizards. His career included a three-year stop in Cleveland, as well as one-year stints with both the Los Angeles Lakers and Clippers.

Overall, Jamison scored 20,042 points and recorded 8,157 rebounds over his impressive career.
