Programs Best Player to NOT have a solid NBA Career

What about Thabeet UCONN?

Gooden did have a long nba career, however he was never the stud that I thought he would be coming out of ku. He averaged 10 a game for his career, but I thought he could have been an all timer. Never sure why he couldn’t stick with one team.

I as well thought gooden would be a stud in the nba, bc he was amazing in college. IMO he lacked the elite athleticism and lateral quickness to be a dominate player in the NBA. Still a helluva nba career and plenty of paychecks to prove it I’m sure.

What about Thabeet UCONN?

Very good one as well, he was damn near impossible to score on down low.

I also expected Emeka Okafor to have a larger impact in the nba as well, but he did at least stick around the league for a while.

Uconn had a ridiculous amount of rim protectors come thru there under Calhoun.

Earl Clark - UL
i was never very high on him but a lot of people were

Earl had all the tools to be a great player, just personality wise he was a bit too laid back, didn’t have that internal drive and competitiveness or alpha/mamba mentality that the great ones have/had. His skill set And measurables were pretty impressive though, hence him being a lottery pick out of college.
