Players who can enter the NBA league are naturally the top players in the sport in terms of talent, but the reality is often not as idealistic as the development, some talented players can not fully display their talents in their basketball careers due to various factors, this article to take stock of the history of the NBA ten players who have not been able to cash in their talents.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="3" > tenth place Darius Miles</h1>
Although the quality of the rookie generation in 2000 has been criticized for many years, Miles's ability to enter the league as a top spot also shows that he is definitely not a mediocre person. From the appearance point of view, Miles at first glance gives people a feeling of extremely similar to Kevin Garnett, in addition to being a few centimeters shorter, his eyebrows and temperament are like a wolf king.
Miles's early career team also tried to make him "Garnett second", and his superior physical fitness also indicated that he would be a superstar embryo, but unfortunately Miles suffered a serious knee injury in his current year, had to leave professional basketball early, and although he once returned to the Grizzlies in the 2008-2009 season, he left again after making 34 appearances for the team.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="5" > ninth place Jay Williams</h1>
Most Chinese fans remember Yao Ming being selected by the Rockets in the 2002 NBA Draft, but little is known that the list show that year was a talented teenager who graduated from the famous basketball school Duke University, Jay Williams, and his career was even more bumpy and tragic than Yao Ming.'s.
Selected by the Bulls, he is seen as the cornerstone of the team's revival in the "post-Jordan era", with 9.5 points and 4.7 assists in his first season, although not top-notch, but his spirited playing style still shows his extraordinary talent, especially when he once cut a triple-double against Kidd, who is known for his all-around ability. However, in the offseason after the end of the rookie season, Williams desperately drove a motorcycle and eventually led to a serious injury to bid farewell to basketball, and his NBA career was only one season.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="7" > eighth place Beasley</h1>
Beasley showed extraordinary talent early in college, his scoring lethality combined with his sense of smell on the offensive end made him booked early on, and in 2008 he was selected by the rebuilding Miami Heat in the top spot, and Wade + Beasley looked like he could give the Heat good expectations.
However, Beasley's personality is the biggest stumbling block restricting him from becoming a real superstar, some of the arrogance on the court is that he seems to be careless about the basketball career, every game seems to be just playing with seven successful forces, coupled with beasley off the field is a lot of negative news, and finally made the team abandon the idea of building a team with him as the core, and Beasley can only appear as a supporting player since then.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="9" > seventh place Andrew Wiggins</h1>
In 2014, people were very much looking forward to that year's draft, because Andrew Wiggins, who announced his draft that year, was regarded as an extremely rare genius in NBA history, and some people even compared him to LeBron James, which shows how much he is valued.
However, when Wiggins began his career, the outside world felt that Wiggins under the fame was actually a little sorry for the once loud reputation. From the data point of view, Wiggins's performance is absolutely qualified, but his overly conservative "clock-in" attitude is really disappointing to compare with players like Jordan or Kobe, but fortunately Wiggins is still young, and his efficiency in the Warriors this season has also improved greatly, and perhaps in the future he will finally cash in on his top talent.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="11" > sixth place Dako Milisic</h1>
Being selected as a showman in the 2003 Golden Generation, where the geniuses gathered, is enough to illustrate Milisic's amazing talent, knowing that behind him are future emperor superstars such as Anthony, Bosh and Wade.
Milisic was unlucky that he was selected by the Detroit Pistons, although he won the championship with the Pistons in his rookie year, but the team coach Larry Brown was an out-and-out die-hard in the use of new people, and In such a situation, Milisic, who could not get a chance to exercise, had to waste his good time.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="13" > fifth place Kwame Brown</h1>
There was a wave of high school rookies in the early century, mainly because the players who graduated from high school were young and promising and malleable, and the Washington Wizards in 2001 followed this trend and signed high school center Kwame Brown.
Perhaps in other teams, the tall and flexible Brown can grow into an All-Star level figure, but the Wizards had a second comeback Michael Jordan at the time, and the overly harsh attitude of the basketball god caused a certain degree of shadow on Brown, which greatly hit his self-confidence, because Brown's subsequent ten-odd career can only be described as mediocre, completely sorry for the expectations of him.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="15" > fourth place Greg Auden</h1>
Even if he was as strong as Durant, he only joined the team as a show-up in that year, and Auden, who had pushed Durant to become the champion that year, has now faded out of the league for many years. There is a saying that even if it is another draft, the Blazers will still choose Oden, and the talent he shows can be seen.
Auden's helplessness was completely dragged down by the continuous injury, and he was reimbursed for the whole year in the rookie season, and the subsequent season was also a stop-and-go, which also made us unable to see the strongest Oden.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="17" > third place Grant Hill</h1>
After Jordan's first retirement, the league rushed to introduce a quality successor to the god of basketball, and the prominent and humble Hill seemed to be the best candidate, and even became the all-Star ticket king in the rookie season.
It was only after a brief period of lighting that Hill's footsteps were interrupted by injuries, and even though his achievements in the league were not low, his peak would only be greater without injuries.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="19" > second place Pence Hardaway</h1>
Hardaway's entry into the league is amazing, with outstanding height and also has a skilled athletic skills, which allows him to become the successor of Jordan and Magic Johnson at the same time, in 1995 Hardaway and O'Neal teamed up to help the Magic reach the Finals, and he defeated Jordan who came back in the middle of the year.
A knee injury wore away Hardaway's aura, and then, whether in the Sun or the Knicks, the slow pace dragged Hardaway down, and even if he briefly revived O'Neal for the Heat in 2007, it ended in failure.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="21" > first place Tracy McGrady</h1>
Maddy, who came from the defensive gates, released his talent on the offensive end after the transfer of the Magic, and he was selected for the season team in different positions for two consecutive years, plus two scoring kings, which showed that there was nothing he could not do on the field.
Many people think that Maddy is lazy, but it is more due to the congenital spinal problems that limit the amount of exercise he exercises, and without the influence of these factors, Maddy can fully realize his talent, and his achievements may not be inferior to anyone in his contemporaries.
