Worst draft prediction about a player you've ever made?

[RPGenerate]

We've all done it (multiple times, at least for me), having a guy in an upcoming draft you're super confident in just utterly fail at the NBA level. For me, I honestly thought Mario Hezonja was going to be a stud, a prospect with a incredibly high ceiling (like, T-Mac potential). His attitude was a red flag to many people, but I personally like that cocky attitude... when you're actually good... which he isn't.

[GreenCoffeeBean]

Bad misses: Justise Winslow, Rondae Hollis-Jefferson, Rashad Vaughn, Skal Labissiere, Jonathan Isaac (maybe, jury is still out), Malik Monk, OG Anunoby

Big hits: Jamal Murray, Caris LeVert, Dejounte Murray, De'Aaron Fox

My whole 2016 draft:

I wanted Bender and Dunn over Jaylen,

and I wanted Korkmaz or Luwawu-Cab taken at Guerschon's spot (when we had to stash that pick).

Robert Upshaw. Thought he'd be really good lol

The entire 2014 draft pretty much.

I loved Wiggins, he was my #1 from start to finish.  I still don’t know what went wrong with him.

There was a time in the weeks before the draft that I had Noah Vonleh ahead of Embiid, I think 4th on my board.  To be fair to myself that was partly due to the significant concerns about Embiid’s health, and he did miss his first two years, so those weren’t crazy.  I also backed off a little after rumors came out of Vonleh’s draft workouts that he saw himself as a small forward, which gave me concern.  But I loved Vonleh.

Even more than Vonleh I loved Nik Stauskas.  Thought he was a can’t-miss prospect.

I also wanted no part of Gary Harris.

I did know enough to like Smart and also enough to not like James Young, but I was way off that draft.

You guys know .. the answer

One of the top shot blockers in college at the time

Athletic. 7'3-7'4 wingspan. Looks of a versatile 4. Held his own against a matchup vs KAT

Game didnt translate at the nba level

Was almost sure Wiggins and parker would dominate the league for decades. They were earth shaking hype behind them both.

-Liked the harrison twins
-Liked James young
-Liked thomas robinson. Thought for sure at worst hed be an average starter in the NBA

[ederson]

Darko. He looked so good as a teen in europe. I thought he would be a borderline all star... 

Proudest moment Dragan Bender.i cannot forget users posting  rankings where the league in Israel one of the top tournaments is the world

I'm going to include some perhaps early calls too.

Misses: Fultz, Mudiay, Wiggins, Exum, Noel, Wes Johnson, Johnny Flynn, Thomas Robinson (I still get excited whenever we're rumoured to be interested in him), Terrence Williams.

Hits: Doncic (even though he was picked 3rd, I thought PHX was foolish not to take him #1), LeVert, Montrezl, Warren, Kawhi

I'm a sucker for an athletic wing

Jeff Taylor - I  thought this guy will be a very good 3&D player with an All-Defensive potential
Cliff Alexander - The just fell of the cliff after his successful college run going undrafted.
Exum - I thought this guy is going to be the next Kobe with his scoring.

I thought Tyler Hansborough would have a better NBA career than Kevin Love.

I second Mudiay, Exum, and Fultz. If you're a suck for athletic wings, I'm a mega sucker for lanky, athletics guards with long wingspans.

[RodyTur10]

I'm making mock drafts for myself since 2016, this are my biggest misses (too high or to low on) and biggest hits (opposite):

Misses: Dragan Bender, Jaylen Brown, Buddy Hield, Zhou Qi, Markelle Fultz, TJ Leaf

Hits: Kris Dunn, Fred VanVleet, Ivica Zubac, De'Aaron Fox, Kevin Huerter

[JSD]

I bought and still own a Marcus Banks jersey
