Emmanuel Mudiay, Denver Nuggets (2015)

There was once a time when league observers thought some team would “tank” the 2014-2015 season in order to secure the rights to draft Emmanuel Mudiay. But as the 2015 NBA Draft process went on, Mudiay’s stock began to lose its luster, and rightfully so. Mudiay’s career has been something of a “Benjamin Button” case, in that his stats have effectively regressed the longer he’s been in the league. After showing some early glimpses of potential as a rookie, Mudiay’s production dipped badly between his first and third seasons in the NBA. By year three, not only did Mudiay not make a single start for the Nuggets, but they were fine enough with trading him to the New York Knicks.

Chriss and Fultz are not busts and many other busts this article states. They could could have used better bust canadits. In the few games Fultz did play he was productive everywhere except the three. That’s normal given he is coming off a shoulder injury. Chriss was not a bust. He was vary productive his first season as a rookie. He showed signs of improvement in certain areas. I can see why they put Bender in here, his shooting has not been that great. A lot of the rookies mentioned it is too early to call them busts. Bamba is a monstrous shot blocker and will be in the NBA. He needs to add strength. It usually takes about 4 seasons to see were a player is going and this will also depend on the position too.
