I think you should have put Javaris Crittendon in this video. He was a lottery pick that fell to the second round because of character and criminal behavior. The Lakers took him in the second round, and were happy to package him with the Gasol brother trade because they didn't like what they saw. He was the other man bringing guns in the locker room in the Gilbert Arenas situation, and from what I've heard about Crittendon, probably the instigator. The media pretty much ignored him in that instance and focused on Arenas. Then Crittendon shot and murdered a woman. From college, to the NBA, to post NBA career, Crittendon was known for his gun play.
Sexual harassment gets a 4 game suspension, getting a minor pregnant as an adult gets no punishment, assaulting your teammate gets a slap on the wrist. But gambling is where they draw the line.
Mess with the money of the league and you pay the price. I’m surprised that Daryl Morey was able to come back into the NBA executive landscape after his comments about supporting Hong Kong Independence.
That's because аnything that undermines the perceived integrity of the game is an existential threat to the NBA. It's not that difficult to figure out.
Being an all-time great in the NBA isn’t just about having God-given abilities, high court IQ, and a high work ethic, *it’s also about having a high degree of self-control-especially when you’re young and starting out your career.*

well vince mcmahon, a billionaire, paid money and still got exposed/accused since 2022 and has since retired because of it. how much more a young guy with no big contract yet.
I doubt he was actively _trying_ to get his kid stoned, but instead was smoking weed with the baby nearby in his vicinity - like an irresponsible moron - basically giving the kid a contact high. Doesn't make it any better, but that's almost always what it means when you read/hear a report that someone got charged with "getting their baby stoned/high".

Josh Jackson is the ultimate example of a player who needed mentoring, both on and off the court. Andy made great comparisons with Jimmy Butler and Kawhi Leonard. These show the difference between growing in a good system versus a bad one. The Bulls and Spurs were two of the top franchises in the league when they drafted Butler and Leonard. The Suns, on the other hand, were awful when they drafted Jackson. Similar situation to Michael Kidd-Gilchrist. MKG was a defensive wing/forward whose offensive game was very raw, but he got drafted to a Bobcats team that had the worst record in league history the year before. Patrick Williams with the currently mediocre Bulls is another example.
Jay Williams "a stupid mistake happened to me". Nope mistake are made they don't just happen and Jay voluntarily made many mistakes not just one that day.
I agree. As I’ve made a lot of mistakes but they didn’t just happen to me. I MADE THEM. But you can also come back from them in jays case his BODY couldn’t come back from it c

You have the free will to control yourself or do something incredibly stupid that'll ruin your NBA career. Self-control is key. Ya wouldn't do something if u knew it was gonna get you into trouble.
I know it's not a huge deal, but Jay Williams saying a bad decision "happened to him" shows a lack of accountability. He seemed to not be taking full ownership of his role in the situation.

David Thompson's career ended after he got into a fight with a bouncer at Studio 54. He got pushed down a stairwell and destroyed his knee in the process. He also had a really bad cocaine addiction.

Jay Williams is really the dumbest for me. He already has it. but then he stupidly rode a motorcycle, without a helmet and license and it was on his contract. WHY!?

He's not a good player or he would have made it wit hthe Clippers and he was the stupidest draft pick the Spurs have ever made.
True story: I worked at Best Buy when Jason Williams had his accident. He had come in that morning to check out some TV’s.

Literally insane!
Roy Tarpley became a legend in Europe. However, he was often wasted. In Greece, he was called Beeroy, even though he was the most dominant player ever played.
Jay Williams was Derrick Rose a half decade before the Bulls selected Rose as the 1st pick in the 2008 draft. Not as insanely explosive and athletic as prime Rose was, but a very effective PG who had done it all as a college player at Duke. His rookie season was more than solid and hinted at a bright future ahead for both himself and the Bulls who were still trying to pick up the pieces after MJ left in 98 and a succession of terrible draft picks and team management there after. Having Williams land in their laps almost how MJ had landed in their laps back in 1984 must have been seen as a godsend. And then Williams inexplicably thought he could ride a motorbike and effectively ended his career (and plunged the Bulls into the pits of despair again) in that moment of stupidity.
The 1986 NBA Draft is pretty much the poster child for the worst draft ever, in terms of high draft picks being enormous busts in one way or another, and where the league's drug abuse problem reared its ugly head in the worst possible way with Len Bias' death. Washburn is probably the worst 3rd pick in NBA history though, and the Warriors scouts should have known better as his off-the-court issues and drug problems, plus his atrocious academics, were well documented in college. And yet they still picked him. His rank lack of care, effort and responsibility when he got to the pros just meant he was never going to fulfil his potential. 72 total games across 2 seasons. 3.1ppg, 2.4rebs and 0.3ast on 41%fg as a 6' 11" center, before he was permanently suspended for his drug and alcohol addictions in 1990. At least in the years since, after doing time in jail and being virtually penniless, Washburn has managed to straighten himself out in more recent years, unlike Tarpley.
I still have a wall poster of 1992-93 Aris B.C. , baskeball club of Thessaloniki, Makedonia. Tarpley made a great name in Greece those years. Aris B.C. was in its first season without Nikos -Nick- Galis. They found in Roy a great leader and won Greek Basketball Cup and European Basketball Cup. The next year he played for Olympiakos, where he was also beloved by fans . After being banned again he played again in Greece and, also, Cyprus. A great player, that could have been even greater!

Brandon Joel "BJ" Tyler, a 6' 1" point guard, attended DePaul University for his freshman year and the University of Texas at Austin for his final three college years before being taken twentieth overall in the 1994 NBA Draft by the Philadelphia 76ers. He played 55 games for them in 1994-95, averaging 3.5 points and 3.2 assists per game. Prior to the 1995-96 NBA season, Tyler was selected by the Toronto Raptors in the 1995 expansion draft. Shortly after: “Tyler accidentally fell asleep with a pack of ice on his knee, severely damaging it and thus losing all the speed for which he was famed, and subsequently had to retire.” (found on Reddit)
One redeeming feature of his career is that in his lone NBA season he did get a triple-double (against the NJ Nets, IIRC). Many longer-career players have never achieved that.
Jason williams was one the best guard i ever seen in college. Jason was scary how good this dude could have been he was a drose in college couldnt be stop
The thing is Jay Williams genuinely had one of the worst rookie years in nba history, was absolutely atrocious. If nothing ever happened to him I don’t think he would’ve ever ended up being good anyways, undersized guard who couldn’t defend and offense didn’t translate to the nba
The Second Overall NBA Draft Pick is Cursed Every NBA team has a draft pick they wish they could take back over their history, whether a superstar was drafted the pick after, or their pick just failed to live up to their potential. In particular, the 2nd overall pick has had quite a surreal number of players not to live up to expectations. There are exceptions, of course, namely Kevin Durant, Isiah Thomas, Jason Kidd, Bill Russell etc. Since 1974, 50 YEARS AGO, the 2nd pick in the NBA Draft has generated a total of 1 MVP, the least of any top 5 pick.
Josh Primo was not a bad draft choice, he had the talent to be what they thought he would be. There was no way for them to know about his mental health issues.
I don’t think Primo NBA career is over just yet, feel like he will definitely get another shot not saying it will work out but I don’t think he laced them for the nba for the last time, I even think a team will bet on Jackson once more before he retire

The dude is the future of the celtics.
But he got overdose in drugs.
The guy celebrated too hard 😢😢
@@dolyhariantonope, he was a Dominique level player.
Thank you for your attention to detail and quality. Your videos are always impressive.🏝🐪♦️
Jay will was one of my favorite Duke players
Chris Washburn, who came out in the same draft as Tarpley to the Warriors(1986), same demons as Tarpley as well.
The 1986 NBA Draft is pretty much the poster child for the worst draft ever, in terms of high draft picks being enormous busts in one way or another, and where the league's drug abuse problem reared its ugly head in the worst possible way with Len Bias' death.
Washburn is probably the worst 3rd pick in NBA history though, and the Warriors scouts should have known better as his off-the-court issues and drug problems, plus his atrocious academics, were well documented in college. And yet they still picked him. His rank lack of care, effort and responsibility when he got to the pros just meant he was never going to fulfil his potential.
72 total games across 2 seasons. 3.1ppg, 2.4rebs and 0.3ast on 41%fg as a 6' 11" center, before he was permanently suspended for his drug and alcohol addictions in 1990.
At least in the years since, after doing time in jail and being virtually penniless, Washburn has managed to straighten himself out in more recent years, unlike Tarpley.
@@ChaosCat79 You are right about that particular draft. It is good to hear that Chris has straightened out his life.
What abt len bias? Or that guy who fell asleep with ice packs on his knee or ankle?
That 2nd guy was Tyson Wheeler, if memory serves correctly.
Len Bias was definitely stupid for doing ❄️, but it would be a bad look to have him in this vid cause ppl would be mad since he’s dead
Cmon, everybody already knows about this story.
@@croftmire bro tyson wheeler daughter died in stupid motorcicle accident , a bunch of youngers playing no one helped her
@@erickouzSo what?!
At least Jay Will had a post-basketball career.
he is so bitter it comes through the screen
@@iec7587 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I still have a wall poster of 1992-93 Aris B.C. , baskeball club of Thessaloniki, Makedonia. Tarpley made a great name in Greece those years. Aris B.C. was in its first season without Nikos -Nick- Galis. They found in Roy a great leader and won Greek Basketball Cup and European Basketball Cup. The next year he played for Olympiakos, where he was also beloved by fans . After being banned again he played again in Greece and, also, Cyprus.
A great player, that could have been even greater!
Primo had the makings of a varsity athlete 😂😂
"A stupid mistake happened to me" HAPPENED TO ME. No accountability for his stupid mistake that he caused to happen to him

Nice vid, thank you!
Brandon Joel "BJ" Tyler, a 6' 1" point guard, attended DePaul University for his freshman year and the University of Texas at Austin for his final three college years before being taken twentieth overall in the 1994 NBA Draft by the Philadelphia 76ers. He played 55 games for them in 1994-95, averaging 3.5 points and 3.2 assists per game.
Prior to the 1995-96 NBA season, Tyler was selected by the Toronto Raptors in the 1995 expansion draft. Shortly after: “Tyler accidentally fell asleep with a pack of ice on his knee, severely damaging it and thus losing all the speed for which he was famed, and subsequently had to retire.” (found on Reddit)
Jay Williams a sad story.
Who was the guy who left an ice pack on his knee while he slept
Lol i was really high on Josh Jackson coming out of college. I thought he was going to be a super solid NBA starter. 😂
Jay Williams is really one of the biggest what if.
One redeeming feature of his career is that in his lone NBA season he did get a triple-double (against the NJ Nets, IIRC). Many longer-career players have never achieved that.
Len Bias can be considered one as well. The Celtics had high hopes for him and MJ himself acknowledged his potential.
@@dolyharianto if only the coke never existed
He musta had brain 🧠 damage to saying LeBron was better than Jordan
Gosh I remember Primo, I drafted in my fantasy league to be the steal of the draft
I’d consider my life ruined too if I was employed by ESPN to comment on college sports.
tarpley and Vin baker so talented yet could not overcome their demons. really really sad.
Talent and work ethic can get you so far in the NBA. You also have to be a professional. It's probably just as important as talent and work ethic...
Got a bet365 ad right before this video 😂
in the Philippines, you only get 15 game suspension in the PBA league after firing a gun (and even past issues like fighting an entire college team)
Still cant believe that mfer Jontay Porter blackballed himself entirely for a lump of change even for role player pay grade standards 😂
Jason williams was one the best guard i ever seen in college. Jason was scary how good this dude could have been he was a drose in college couldnt be stop
The thing is Jay Williams genuinely had one of the worst rookie years in nba history, was absolutely atrocious. If nothing ever happened to him I don’t think he would’ve ever ended up being good anyways, undersized guard who couldn’t defend and offense didn’t translate to the nba
The Second Overall NBA Draft Pick is Cursed
Every NBA team has a draft pick they wish they could take back over their history, whether a superstar was drafted the pick after, or their pick just failed to live up to their potential.
In particular, the 2nd overall pick has had quite a surreal number of players not to live up to expectations.
There are exceptions, of course, namely Kevin Durant, Isiah Thomas, Jason Kidd, Bill Russell etc.
Since 1974, 50 YEARS AGO, the 2nd pick in the NBA Draft has generated a total of 1 MVP, the least of any top 5 pick.
You forgot Gary Payton.
The funny thing about Porter is that he probably would have made more money if he actually played for a contract.
I never knew any of those things about Josh Jackson… he got his 4 month old …. High?!?
Anyone coming out of the U of Kansas is questionable.
Josh… Primo, Jackson, Giddey 🤦🏽♂️ all SA allegations
Josh Primo signed a training camp deal with the Bulls 2 days ago...
If Primo behaves, he’d be a good fit on the Spurs with Wemby and Paul
Josh Primo was not a bad draft choice, he had the talent to be what they thought he would be. There was no way for them to know about his mental health issues.
I disagree with the Yao draft. Everyone knew who Yao was and everyone pretty much had him going first
I don’t think Primo NBA career is over just yet, feel like he will definitely get another shot not saying it will work out but I don’t think he laced them for the nba for the last time, I even think a team will bet on Jackson once more before he retire
Wade didn't expect to have someone with the same nickname but for a different reason
