Steve Francis: 1999-00 Rookie of the year


Born: February 21, 1978, Silver Spring, Maryland, USA.

College: Maryland

NBA start: Selected 2nd overall by Vancouver.

Size: height:6'3" - weight:195lbs

Rookie stats: gp:77 - mpg:36.1 - ppg:18.0 - rpg:5.3 - apg:6.6 - fg%:44.5 - ft%:78.6

Team standing: 34-48, 6th in Midwest division.

Comments: He hoped to be selected 1rst by Chicago so to follow in the footsteps of his idol Michael Jordan. But he went to Vancouver instead at #2. He disliked that idea that he forced a trade to Houston. He was co-rookie of the year winner with the #1 pick Elton Brand.
