Worst NBA draft picke ever !!!!

Bryant Reeves

the Vancouver Grizzlies took big country as their first pick ever when they could have had hometown boy Steve Nash...

Years later the Griz are no longer in Vancouver and Nash is a MVP....

this draft pick ended up costing a city its franchise can any other pick say that........

Dammit. Beat me to it.

I really hope the NBA comes back to Vancouver.

That will be the only thing he will ever be remembered for. Still a good story to tell his grandkids

Michael Olowokandi was another worst #1, especially since the Clippers couldve used that pick for Vince Carter, Antawn Jamison, Dirk Nowitzki or Paul Pierce that year.

This the correct choice.

Sam Bowie and Big Country had some quality seasons. Bowie's rookie year he avg 10 and 8. That is pretty much what you ask for a big man.

Kwame in the other hand has never impressed and should've went to college.

Rafeal Araujo , number four pick overall by the Toronto Raptors. Nobody knew who he was. To the point where when his name was announced the announcers literaly said "huh, who?" and "That can't be right".

He was one of the worst players I have ever seen, and is not in the NBA any longer. Not for reasons like Big Country, but because he was so horrible they released him. Didn't even bother to send him to the NBDL.

He now plays in Russia and is still not good.

Big Country was not a bad player, but injuries really hurt him. He was a god compared to Rafeal.
