The '''[[1999–2000 NBA season|1999]] [[NBA draft]]''' was held on June 30, 1999, at the [[MCI Center]] (now Capital One Arena) in Washington, D.C. It was the first draft in which four players from the same college were picked in the first round, with [[Elton Brand]] (1st selection), [[Trajan Langdon]] (11th), [[Corey Maggette]] (13th) and [[William Avery (basketball)|William Avery]] (14th) being selected out of [[Duke Blue Devils men's basketball|Duke University]]. It is widely viewed as one of the best draft classes, with a total of nine future [[NBA All-Star Game|NBA All-Stars]] being chosen, as well as three winners of the [[NBA Sixth Man of the Year Award]]—[[Manu Ginóbili]], [[Jason Terry]], and [[Lamar Odom]]. Six of the top nine picks were NBA All-Stars. [[Pablo Prigioni]], who was eligible for selection but went undrafted, eventually debuted in the [[2012–13 NBA season|2012–2013 season]] as the oldest rookie in NBA history at age 35.
