By all accounts, Thabeet should have been a great NBA player. He was 7’3” and 265 pounds. The Grizzlies were thrilled to take him with the second pick in the 2009 draft. Surely they thought they had just found their franchise center. That hadn’t. Thabeet averaged 2.2 points and 2.7 rebounds per game over 7 NBA seasons

Despite his status as a bust, Thabeet is still playing basketball. After a short break from the game in 2015, Thabeet moved to Japan to play for Yokohama B-Corsairs. This earned him a move back to the States and a spot on the roster of the Fort Wayne Mad Ants in the NBA G-League.
