    No way shawn kemp, that guy was badass until later in his career when he started having personal problems.

    Im gonna go with JR Rider and Adonyal Foyle. Foyle was suppose to be a good pick in the draft but he's amounted to nothing. JR Rider was badass for like a season and then decided weed was more important than the nba and bounced around from team to team getting benched by every one. He's now the owner of a rap record label out here in California.

    edit: hah, yeah i also agree with shawn bradley and kwame brown. Although to bradleys credit he has managed to stay in the league for quite some time. I think he's the only player ive ever seen fall flat on his face while running from the bench to the scorers tables.

    My talk talks about Chris Washburn being one of the most monumental disapointments of all time.

    Others include:

    Nikolaz Tskitcshvili
    Dejuan Wagner
    Darius Miles
    Rodney White (Jordan wanted him over Kwame Brown and neither have had much success)

    i duno how any1 can have darko there

    every1 knew he was a "project" with bigtime potential coming out at a tender age of 17

    HE is still very young and has shown MASSIVE Improvement this year at orlando, i think he is developing fine. To call him most disappointing is just a joke He has gotten better every year

    didnt help he had larry brown as a coach in detroit on whom may i mention OVERRATED....and doesnt seem to care about developing the young 1's so when darko wasnt ready immediately larry jus didnt care

    Darko is young still but he's not gonna be anything more than a decent nba player (if that) You act like I called an ok prospect out for no reason... Darko was hyped up to be the next great foreign basketball player and that will never happen.
    Not sure why you think Larry Brown didn't want to develop Darko, maybe you were at the practices where Larry was in Darkos ear everyday and trying to make him a better basketball player... He didn't play in games under Larry Brown because he sucked not because Larry didn't like his age.
    I hope Darko has a healthy and good career in the league but from all the hype he had and to realize how good he really is, well, it's "dissapointing"
