Us?
In my era that I remember. Probably Larry sanders or Brandon Jennings
Thon Maker
Jabari parker
Christian Wood anybody?
Our 1998 FRP
The key word is wasted. The answer is Larry Sanders.
TJ Ford or Brandon Jennings
Tractor Trailer. I mean, we traded a future Hall of Famer for him…
Ray Allen – we absolutely wasted his potential as a Buck by making the worst trade I have ever seen.
Jabari Parker
I think Jabari had a higher ceiling than Larry sanders and the shame of it seemed it was because he was lazy and didn’t want to put in the work. Larry worked his ass off and was great for us but Jason Kidd ruined him!
Tim Thomas?
OJ Mayo
Tobias Harris
Brandon Jennings
Andrew Bogut
It’s Bogut.
Bogut deserved to be the top pick. Incredible college career. Incredible physicals.
Good but never great player who kept getting hurt- in often horrible ways.
I think Sanders and Parker were overhyped.
Jennings, Sanders both lost potential to drugs
Tim Thomas for sure. McGrady/Kobe potential
jabari— i think injury is the best illustration of wasted potential that is not the fault of the player. wasted potential to me is the could have should have argument…. jabari had it… and lost it… wasted talent..
most the other names here just never were who we wished them to be…. we mislassified their talent… jabari had talent….
Michael Redd, injuries ruined what couldve been a top 20 shooter of all time
