I wanna name everyone on this poster. Fill in where the person before left off

(standing) Marcus Camby, Stephon Marbury, Kobe Bryant, Shareef Abur-Rahim, Jermaine Oneal, Steve Nash, ?, Antoine Walker.
(sitting) Ray Allen, Kerry Kittles, ?
Where is AI? He was the first pick in the draft. And who are the last two guys?

No idea where AI is

I guess they just couldn’t track him down for the photo shoot. I think the other two players pictured are John Wallace and Tony Delk, but don’t quote me on it.

I think that might be Samaki Walker seated at right.

Yeah way too big to be Delk

Getting buckets since 2003.

And this pic doesn't even include 4 allstars from the '96 draft

Iverson (already pointed out by Spanky)
Stojakovic
Ilgauskas
Ben Wallace (undrafted)

Getting buckets since 2003.

you can kind of see the names right next to the player. I dont think the guy on the ground is samaki because his last name seems to have only 3-4 letters in it. Probably is delk. What about the guys standing up between antoine and steve nash.

Here's a bigger version of the picture

Clicky clicky.

On second look, I’m pretty sure the guy on the ground is Samaki. The guy between Antoine and Nash is definitely John Wallace.

Yeah

It looks like the players’ names are in characters on top, then in English on the bottom. But…why?

I think

That photo came from a Google Image Search that sent me to this Chinese message board, so I guess the poster came with the Chinese characters. I couldn’t find the original photo anywhere.
