Tyler Hansbrough after North Carolina
After being taken in the first round of the 2009 NBA Draft, Hansbrough spent the past eight seasons in the league, before joining the Fort Wayne Mad Ants of the NBA G-League, and finally landing in China. While some will try to argue that Hansbrough’s career wasn’t a complete train-wreck (like some of the others on this list) — 6 points per game on 43% shooting is not exactly what you look for when you draft a guy who was one of the best college basketball players of all time.
Hansbrough’s career has stalled recently due to the ongoing global pandemic. He signed with the Sichuan Blue Whales for the 20-21 season but did not appear in a game due to travel restrictions. Instead, Hansbrough stayed in the United States and started working as a color commentator for the ACC Network.
