Biggest Busts in NBA draft history

[AbeFroman]

Who do you guys think is the biggest bust in NBA draft history?

It picks Darko based on who else was available (Carmelo, Wade, etc.) and the situation the Pistons were in at the time versus the situation they're in now.

That argument makes sense to me, especially since Darko never even became a remotely effective player. Most of the list seems pretty accurate, although I wonder why Adam Morrison isn't on the list though, he was the #3 pick and can't even get playing time for NBA teams now. Do you guys agree with that list? Who do you think are the biggest busts?

Atl Hawks - just because I used to follow them so closely

Jon Koncak from Southern Meth


This guy was a number one pick who they never gave up on. Costed them many millions and alot of games lost.

People love to point out Sam Bowie just because they could of had Jordan. Bowie was a bust but at least injuries played a part in it.

Guys who were BIG BUST on their own is a different story.

My TOP 3 biggest busts:
1. Chris Washburn #3 overall pick and was done in by drugs. The #2 pick that year was Len Bias. I will not include him but it should be noted he was a bust in terms of production given out of a pick.
2. Michael Olowokandi #1 overall. Look at who went behind him Bibby,Jamison,V-Carter,Pierce,Nowitzki.
3. Anyone taken in the 2000 draft after Kenyon Martin. I mean really that was one pathetic draft year. Just take a look:
