1997 — Tony Battie (Denver)
1998 — Vince Carter (Golden State)
1999 — Jonathan Bender (Toronto)
2000 — Mike Miller (Orlando)
2001 — Jason Richardson (Golden State)
2002 — Nikoloz Tskitishvili (Denver)
2003 — Dwyane Wade (Miami)
2004 — Devin Harris (Washington)
2005 — Raymond Felton (Charlotte)
2006 — Shelden Williams (Atlanta)
