35. Jamario Moon
This might be our favorite story on this list.
When Moon signed with Toronto after impressing Raptors officials in a three day mini-camp, he had come off stints with the Mobile Revelers, Dodge City Legend, Mobile (again), Huntsville Flight, Kentucky Colonels, Rome Gladiators, Albany Patroons, Fort Worth Flyers, Marietta Storm, Fuerza Regia, Albany (again), Gary Steelheads and Fuerza Regia (again) before so honestly nobody really expected this vagabond to stick in the NBA.
He did, and would become the starting Small Forward averaging 8.0 Points and 5.6 Rebounds over his 132 Game career as a Toronto Raptor. He would also have 9.1 Point Shares as a Raptor.
Not too shabby for the product of Meridian Community College.
