While Vin Baker is one of those players who is often associated with wasting his potential due to substance abuse, the fact remains that this was a very good player who had some good seasons, one of which was with the Seattle SuperSonics.
Baker arrived in Seattle after putting up three consecutive All Star Seasons in Milwaukee. He would add a fourth in his first year as a Sonic while adding a Second Team All NBA Selection to his resume, while posting his highest single season PER (20.4). Baker would however go into decline in the following year and would never come close to approaching that level again, and would actually finish with sub par VORP numbers bringing his rank down on this list.
