High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The 1951 NBA Draft was the fifth annual draft of the National Basketball Association. The draft was held on April 25, 1951 before the 1951-52 season. In this draft, ten remaining NBA teams took turns selecting amateur U.S. college basketball players. In each round, the teams select in reverse order of their win-loss record in the previous season. The Tri-Cities Blackhawks participated in the draft, but relocated to Milwaukee, Wisconsin and became the Milwaukee Hawks prior to the start of the season. The draft consisted of 12 rounds comprising 87 players selected. Gene Melchiorre from Bradley University was selected first overall by the Baltimore Bullets. However, he never played in the NBA due to his involvement in a point shaving scandal while playing college basketball. Myer Skoog from University of Minnesota was selected before the draft as Minneapolis Lakers' territorial pick.
