I’m a fairly new NBA fan so obviously I didn’t follow the league when these guys got drafted. But I’ve done reading up on it and Anthony Bennett, Greg Oden, and Darko Milicic are the three that probably come most readily to mind when I think about this question.
My question is who are some of the sneaky draft busts? The guys you consider huge busts that don’t really get talked about as much when this question comes up. I’d love to hear about some of those guys and learn some more about NBA history.
Man, the Timberwolves have no luck in the draft. Other than Kevin Garnett their high draft picks always flame out. Even though KAT and Edwards have looked good, it looks like they’re gonna struggle to get anywhere in the playoffs with them.
No luck? I think it’s mostly incompetence and not luck that’s the issue. Let’s not forget they drafted TWO point guards 5th and 6th overall in 2009 when Steph Curry went 7th.
Yup. Jonny Flynn should be in this thread forsure
He had a very promising rookie year, but never recovered from his hip injury. Pretty sad.
