Sam Bowie, Kwame Brown, Raef LaFrentez, and Greg Oden are all certified high-profile NBA Draft Busts. We ran down the 25 Worst Draft Picks of All-Time a few years ago, detailing how awful these players are/were, and how they became widely known as NBA busts. We've done a lot of "worsts" lists too—crappy NBA draft busts like Oden, Darko Milicic, Adam Morrison and Marvin Williams are often repeat offenders for topics such as The 25 Worst Contracts in NBA History, The Worst Players to Ever Win an NBA Championship, and the aforementioned 25 Worst Draft Picks of All-Time.
Today, however, we bring a new perspective to Complex Sports' NBA coverage. Let's be nice, even if it's just for one listicle. While all the players named above are tremendous disappointments to millions of people, they each had great individual NBA games and/or moments that reminded everyone why they were drafted where they were. From Kwame Brown balling out like he's 2003 Anthony Davis to Adam Morrison scoring 30 points as a rookie, these are The Finest Moments of the NBA’s Biggest Draft Busts.
