Who’s got next?
It’s an adage with which basketball fans are friendly-familiar—both a quip to find out who’s got the next pickup game and who among the NBA’s scores of young players is most poised for a next-year leap.
Being “next” is a great thing. It means you’ve arrived on the public’s radar. It means whatever you do on the court, we'll be watching.
This slideshow is about the other guys.
Because for every promising up-and-comer on the cusp of hardwood-hero status, there’s one player for whom the years of rising expectations have not been kind.
Today, we’ll look at nine players who, if things don’t turn around soon, risk fading forever into NBA oblivion.
Now, as Walter Sobchak might say, “This isn’t ‘Nam—there are rules.” For instance, we’re not including players who’ve logged fewer than two NBA seasons. Second, they have to be younger than 30.
And…that’s pretty much it! Let’s give these poor dudes a good talking-to, shall we?
