Yeah, too many Z&Done flops from the HS to Pros era.
Just saw Dante Exum has been dropped to the d-league.... knee injury derailed his entry to the league.

Brandon Wright has been a solid role player on NBA teams since he was drafted. I believe he won a title with the Mavs and is still getting solid minutes with the Griz, along with old man Vince.
Jeter, Obi, Deraleuier, Gaudet, Capel.......oh wait I didn't read carefully they are just flops!
Woahh, I beg to differ on this one. I bet he's All-Prison League.
Jonathon Hargett
You probably don't remember him. His story reads like a warning to kids from disadvantaged backgrounds - using drugs, selling drugs, pregnant girlfriend at 15, incarcerated father, shady agent stuff, etc.

Lolz. He must be one of the richest flops ever. Signed for $55million last year on what must be at least his 3rd deal. One of the better 3pt shooting forwards in the league.
He is not a flop. Is he great? No, but hes been a solid starter for a long time now.
I doubt the person who mentioned him watches the NBA.
I nice little story on so-called flop, Marvin:

Has Marvin Williams lived up to his #2 overall selection? No. Depends on your definition of flop.
Marvin Williams is a highly respected NBA veteran by both coaches and players. He's a pro's pro. He's versatile, a hard worker and a consummate leader and teammate. As far as living up to his draft pick, I'll agree that you hope for more out of a #2 pick. But with that said, there are only a few guys from that 2005 draft that I would pick over him in retrospect. Marv has career averages of 10 and 5 on 45%/35%/80% shooting.
List of #2 Since Big Marv:
LaMarcus Aldridge
Michael Beasley
Hasheem Thabeet
Evan Turner
Derrick Williams
Michael Kidd-Gilchrist
Victor Oladipo
Jabari Parker
De'Angelo Russel
Brandon Ingram
Of the 10 since Big Marv was picked I would only take 3 before him: LaMarcus, Jabari, and Brandon & Jabari is arguable!
Way to go Big Marv!
