What players were written off as busts, but eventually proved to be otherwise?
Was wondering this. Furthermore, what players who are currently considered busts do you think could still become stars?

Zach Randolph
George Muresan - not a star, but became productive.

NBA sixth man of the year

Haven't watched enough years of NBA to know the first question but for the second I still have faith in Greg Oden

I don't really know. Like guy above said though I'm hoping Greg Oden can come back strong

@bold: Yeah, I want to believe too. If the recent reports are right and he really has been rehabbing for 2+ years straight, I have some faith.
I also hope Beasley can prove himself too.

Wasn't Dirk considered a bust at first?

Steve Nash, I don't know much about what was expected of him, but I've never seen a player that took so long to start who became as good as he did. Steve Nash might have the best fundamentals of any player ever.

John Wall's starting to put it all together.

He was not a bust though. At the very least before he came back to Phoenix, he was a good player. Though I never envision him winning MVPs, I expect him to be a decent NBA player when he led the Santa Clara upset of UCLA. I did not see the game but based on what Bruins staffs were saying, he was pretty good. Fundamentally, he's up there with the likes of Bird and Stockton.

That's a good one, but it seemed to me people were pretty quick to call him a bust. Wonder how he'll do next year.
Steve Nash is another one. What about Tyson Chandler? He hasn't had a career you might expect from a player drafted so high, but he's managed to be pretty successful

Steve Nash wasn't even a lotto pick.
The correct answers are Tyson Chandler and Chauncey Billups.

Yeah, Chandler's a good choice, and Billups as well. Jermaine Oneal?
