40. Josh Childress
Josh Childress spent his first four seasons in the NBA with the Atlanta Hawks, often serving as the team’s sixth man, a role in which he performed very well.  Despite being used predominantly off the bench, Childress would still average over 30 Minutes per Game as a Hawk and never had a season with fewer than Points per Game. Childress would shock Atlanta — and, really, the entire NBA — when he left the team for Olympiacos in the Greek League.
