Bowie. Nothing else compares to missing the chance to draft MJ.

Christian Laettner was not a bust, just not the superstar player he was in college. He was a solid role player for a couple of teams.
And Marcus Camby is in no way a bust. The only sad thing about Camby is getting shafted by the All-Star ballots every year.

Bowie wasn't that bad. he averaged 15 and ten at one point. he was just ruined by injuries. Plus the blazers already had clyde drexler

I just realized that Bryant Reeves and Steve Nash werent even in the same draft, so of course Reeves wouldve been picked ahead of Nash.

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.

Number 8 pick overall.
But awful pick nonetheless.
Id say Bargnani has to be up there as well. #1 pick and the guy is absolutely awful. Not as bad as Araujo but Araujo wasnt drafted 1st.
