In this clip, Gary Payton reflected on getting drafted with the No. 2 overall pick by the Seattle Supersonics in the 1990 NBA Draft. He talked about playing his first professional regular season game against Michael Jordan and quickly realizing how much different the level of play was at the pro level versus college. Gary also admitted to not working on his game during the first two seasons of his career and how that lack of work led to him being called a bust before turning things around with the arrival of new head coach George Karl.
