Now that we know who is going where, who will be the most likely selections to bust from this class?

Cauley-Stein. Don't think he ever makes an impact offensively. He went way too high

I think Kris will be a good pro. Just not live up to 4, to due to the fact he was thrown into a terrible situation.

When you say Kaminsky is gonna bust, what do you expect? An All-Star selection? He'll be a productive player worth of the #9 pick. He just won't get that much better over the course of his career.

I don't think he will be worth #9, especially given than Winslow went 10

i dont wanna say willie will bust because it took tyson chandler a while but he became a decent enough offensive player.

but willie did get drafted too high

WCS won't be one of the top ten players in this class. He'll defend and be a good role player but that's about it.

Cameron Payne won't live up to the hype of being a lottery pick either.

That'd be overachieving on Winslow's part more than anything. If you look at #8-10 from previous years, I don't see why he couldn't be as good or better than those people.

Justise Winslow will never play a minute in the NBA due to a heroin overdose.

Recent #8 and #9 picks also include Terrence Ross, Kentavious Caldwell-Pope, Trey Burke, Nik Stauskas and Noah Vonleh.
 
If he can fall somewhere between those two groups, which I think he can, he won't be a "bust".

I also think WCS will be pretty special, never a scorer, but a Drummond/Jordan role
