definitely will be considered one of the worst picks in history...
Sam Bowie (Kentucky) Drafted number two by Portland in 1984, his career will be remembered for the players he was chosen ahead of. Namely, Hall of Famers: Michael Jordan, Charles Barkley, and John Stockton.

Some of the recent draft picks
![]() 2002 - Nuggets selected Nikoloz Tskitishvili 5th (Rep of Georgia) Yao Ming's draft class wasn't overly stacked, but the Nuggets could have drafted just about anybody and had a better ROI. This pick ultimately forced GM Kiki Vanderweghe to lose his job, but saved many more GM's. Tskitishvili raised a bright red flag on European players. You can't just locate the athletic 7-footer with the classic Euro ball skills around the perimeter and expect success. Tskitishvili was so out of his league in all facets from the beginning. Amare Stoudemire had his own issues that scared teams away, but his instantaneous success and impact should have made him far less a risk than a skinny kid from across the ocean. On the meter of [how quickly it was obvious he sucked] scale this scored a 10. I remain convinced Kiki never worked Nikoloz out against any collegiate stars entering the draft. What we learned: A 7-footer from Europe who can stroke a three with no one guarding him doesn't translate to the NBA. 1998 - Clippers selected Michael Olowokandi 1st overall (Pacific) 2003 - Pistons selected Darko Milicic 2nd (Yugoslavia) I thought he was my sleeper pick 2!! Larry Brown f*cked him up 2000 - Bulls selected Marcus Fizer 4th (Iowa State) 2001 - Wizards selected Kwame Brown 1st overall (high school) ![]() 2002 - Warriors selected Mike Dunleavy 3rd (Duke) Disappointed me 2 2006 - Warriors selected Patrick O'Bryant 9th 1997 - Grizzlies select Antonio Daniels 4th (Bowling Green) 2004 - Raptors selected Rafael Araujo 8th (BYU) 1999 - Pacers select Jonathan Bender 5th (high school) injury messed him up
