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.

Fultz gets all the attention there because he was in front of Tatum

Fultz is a bust as a number one pick, but he’s still a pretty good player. If he never hurt his shoulder/back/brain and could still shoot, he’d be a complete player. He’s big and pretty athletic with some defensive versatility, he can get into the paint and create for others with the ball in his hands. He’s a reliable 3 point shot away from being an awesome 2 way player.

It couldn't be helped, he has thoracic outlet syndrome. He's decent now but can't stay healthy. It's not his fault but he is definitely a busy.
