ドワイト・ハワード
Dwight Howard has become an eight-time All-Star and has received seven All-NBA selections, and a three-time NBA Defensive Player of the Year. He also had the distinction as the only NBA player straight out of high school to start all 82 games as a rookie. There are also four other players that would be named All-Stars at some point in their careers, and Al Jefferson would be named to an All-NBA team. The draft is also notable for many high schoolers being drafted within a few picks from each other. As of 2020, the only remaining active players from the 2004 NBA draft are Dwight Howard, Andre Iguodala, J.R. Smith, and Trevor Ariza.
