3. Devin Harris

Devin Harris is one of the fastest and quickest players to ever suit up for Wisconsin. That speed was nearly unguardable and allowed him to get anywhere on the floor.

He played for the Badgers from 2002-2004, before entering the NBA Draft after his junior season in 2004. He made the right decision in leaving that year, as he was selected with the fifth overall pick.

During his time at Wisconsin, he was the go-to man for the Badgers. He averaged 14.8 points for his career, including 19.5 during his final campaign. He also averaged 3.1 assists and 4.1 rebounds per game throughout his time in Madison.

He ranks 10th all-time on Wisconsin’s scoring list with 1425 points, eighth in assists with 295 and sixth in steals with 164. In 2003-04, he also won the Big Ten Player of the Year award as well as earning second-team All American honors. Harris truly was one of the best players in Badgers’ history.
