Laettner. National Player of the Year, National Champion, Most Outstanding Player of the Final Four. In 1992, there was no "more deserving player". If they knew Shaq would be as dominant as he ended up being, they might have picked him. But in 1992, Laettner was the best in college basketball.

I say Shaq only because they were determined to fill that last roster spot with a college player. But I felt the last spot should have went to Isiah Thomas and it might have if he didn't walk off the court before the end of that playoff loss angaist the Bulls. The olympics are more about good sportsmanship and fair competition than anything else; Isiah didn't display good sportsmanship that day.
