1978 NBA Draft
The 1978 NBA draft is notable for Red Auerbach and the Boston Celtics ' selection of Larry Bird (Junior)from Indiana State. Bird was drafted with a then-rule that allowed teams to draft players whose class hadn't graduated yet.
The 1978 NBA draft also marked the first time that a non-American (Mychal Thompson, Bahamas) was selected first overall.
