Playing in Serbia.  So much for being a perfect stretch 5 in the NBA.

Eh. 8 seasons in the NBA is better than I thought he would do.

Yea I could never stand him, but he somehow stuck around 8 years and now he goes to Partizan that, even though Serbia isn't Spain or Greece, is a EuroLeague team that pays quite well and plays top tier competition

He was a top 10 pick but your points are well taken.  How many current Wisky NBA ballers now?

Johnny Davis is likely the one on an opening day roster. Micah Potter has a 2 way with the Jazz I believe. I think that's it

He was drafted ninth in 2015, but there are only three in the top 10 that have had clearly better careers (KAT, Russell, Porzingas).  Those three and Devin Booker are the only all-stars from that draft.

Who said anything about all-stars?  They're plenty of guys still in the league from that draft and are contributing.

I was just stating that it was a strange draft due to the lack of production from the top ten. He clearly was a "miss," but there were a lot of misses that year.

Fair.  There are always misses.  But Mike Lucas whiffed as usual on his pro potential.

Never pay attention to Mike Lucas. Was a decent reporter and columnist in the 1970s and 80s, but has been a captive propagandist for awhile now.

Edit: just saw that UW didn't renew his contract earlier this year and he's back with the Cap Times.
