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.

A perfect example of a guy being victimized by the step-up in play. A high-quality big guy in college is only going to play other high-quality bigmen a handful of times a season, but in the NBA even the bigman at the end of the bench is a guy who would tear up college bigmen.
