Wow, that says a lot about Washburn's actual career. The guy selected 3rd in the 1986 NBA draft goes 60th in a sim league draft. Poor schmoe.

Christopher Scott Washburn (born May 13, 1965 in Hickory, North Carolina).

A 6'11" center, Washburn was one of the top three high school recruits in the country in 1984 along with John Williams (LSU) and Danny Manning (Kansas). He signed with ACC powerhouse North Carolina State University in Raleigh along with future EBKL stars Vinny Del Negro and Nate McMillan to form one of the best recruiting classes in the nation on a team that also included Spud Webb. An incredibly gifted athlete, Washburn combined incredible size with blazing speed for a big man with soft hands.

According to some of his former teammates, however, Washburn was a student in name only. It is alleged that he almost never attended classes. Even so, Washburn remained eligible to play. During his time at N.C. State, he was caught stealing a stereo, which resulted in him being sentenced to 46 hours in jail, a five-year suspended prison term and five years of probation. During his trial, the Wake Countydistrict attorney introduced as evidence Washburn's SAT scores, which were below 500 (out of 1600, with 400 being the starting score).

His work ethic was also called into question. Recruiting analyst Bob Gibbons claimed that Washburn was "never as good as his reputation," even as a high-school All-American. Gibbons was blasted by many N.C. State fans for suggesting that Washburn was going to break the Wolfpack basketball program, in response to coach Valvano's claim that Washburn would make the program.

The one full season Washburn played with the Wolfpack demonstrated his potential. He averaged 17.6 points a game and 6.7 rebounds, sharing time in the front court with Charles Shackleford and Chucky Brown. Washburn's best outing was against Brad Daugherty and UNC on Feb. 23, 1986. Before a nationally-televised audience, Washburn scored 26 points as the Wolfpack upset the then-ranked #1 Tar Heels 76-65.
