They are definitely BUSTING this time.
Seeing these guys bust is sad
All 4 are Detroit Pistons
Wiseman is busting so hard right now. He’s busting at home, on the road, at GSW, at DET; simply all over the place.
The sad reality is that Wiseman has never gotten to play, either at all or with any regularity, since high school. At every turn, he has been lied to, gotten horrible advice (like from Penny) and had smoke blown up his ass. The GSW drafted him because they were old, then Kerr wouldn't play him or if he did, a-hole Draymond would flip out at any mistake he made & Kerr would pull him.
Davion Mitchell played great in the playoffs, what are you on?
Surprised Jalen green isn’t on the list
I beat the bust allegations with your mom last nite
Never had hopes for Johnny Davis he already gave me bust vibes coming into the draft
Johnny Davis had upside in Wisconsin. He had nights where he looked like a superstar. Unfortunately, Wisconsin is an NBA superstar factory like Kentucky or Kansas.
Sam Dekker struggled to find a spot in the league, and Frank Kaminsky was a rotation player at best in the NBA. Both of them are now playing in Europe, Dekker on the London Lion in the British League, and Kaminsky on Partizan in the EuroLeague.
Johnny Davis looks to be heading that path right now.
I couldn't beat the bust accusations and i dont even play basketball
You could say they are actively busting, yes?
Ziaire predraft narrative was EXACTLY like the Reddish one, they didn’t do anything but looked the part. Then Miller this past draft actually was elite across the board and got criticized to no end. There’s a weird contrarian bend to the draft world
Jalen green
I was really rooting for Davion
I don’t think videos by nondescript commentators is constructive. Wiseman certainly did not look like a bust in his last game.
As a Kings fan, it's sad seeing Davion not get many minutes anymore, in favor of a two-way contract player Keon Ellis. But the Kings have given Davion enough chances to develop his offense and right now they're out of patience it seems. Keon Ellis is producing more consistently on offense and plays hard enough on defense to make up for the lack of Davion's elite on-ball defense. Davion would do well on a contender who needs a Jrue Holiday-esque on-ball defender.
These guys have got to stop busting on the court real talk! They have so much potential to have a real nice stroke but they rush everything and just bust…they’ll learn eventually.
Wisemen doesnt have bust allegations because hes already a bust, L move for u to put him in this video cause the video IMO was for players that have allegations and that arent busts yet but if they keep it up they will be
Mitchell was drafted by a clueless team. Fox is already their PG. Why draft Mitchell? Wiseman just needs a coach that will give him a chance, minutes and not play mind games with him. Zhaire Williams and Davis need to play better
Bilal Coulibaly low key playing great
i think davion’s fine the rest are lost tho
I dont think Davion Mitch is a bust, just a wrongly used player who, in the right environment, could be an elite role player imo
Cause he’s from my hometown I ain’t giving up on Wiseman just yet mane
45 percent viewer sub rate is HIGH. That begging every start of the video actually helps 😂😂😂
YTNM
Ziaire Williams shouldn’t be on this list!
Davion Mitchell was always viewed as a true backup PG, not a 3&D combo guard. He’s a soft bust, and it is because of his shot, but he doesn’t belong on this list. If you had high expectations for Davion that’s on you
James Wiseman played over 20 minutes and posted a solid double-double this week. I predict he will go to the right situation at a discounted rate and prove many people wrong.
On the verge of busting for sure
Where is giddey at? Hes failing to beat more than bust allegations 💀
Nope wiseman not even entering His final form yet not even his first form it just matter of time and repetition wiseman obviously got high potential,everytime you see him play
I don’t think it’s fair to Wiseman. He had his typical rookie struggles, then got hurt and was always in a spot where his development wasn’t prioritized at all. I think it may have hurt his confidence but he’s been decent in Detroit when playing
Wiseman is not a real basketball player… he's a guy with awful IQ for Xs and Os as well as feel for the game. He doesn't have any skills like dribbling, passing, or shooting.
He's JUST a tall person with athleticism. That's it. Of course he's going to be a bust. The warriors have made weak players relevant, yet he was incapable of improving at a. That's all on him.
You can’t put Johnny Davis on here if he doesn’t get any minutes.
Yall really dont have to keep starting every comment with “As a (insert team) fan…”
Davion lost his spot when Keon was playin quality mins and plays making Davion right d most likely player traded for.d Kings
bro your acting like davion isnt playing behind one of the best pgs in the league
As a wizards fan I knew Davis wasn’t gonna pan out under our current coaching system
Davion was ninth pick
I would say Davion’s shot actually looks better this season despite the numbers. Hasn’t really had a chance to get them up when he is sitting
If Wiseman keeps bussing like this, he will have no more juice for the rest of his career.
A lot of these young players suffer from not playing the right position in the league and inconsistent play time. Sure players get better with practice and training, but most young players get better by playing in games and being supported after making some mistakes. No to mention NBA politics, how many times do we see flashes from a player and then there PT suddenly drops, with no changes made to the team.
