everyone has players they thought was dope, or u simply wanted to see make it.
BUT. we all know it just doesnt work out for some.
like the following.

Brandin Knight the former pitt standout and brother of brevin knight might have been the best pg in the NCAA last year, but was cut short from a future in the NBA when he didnt make the Kings training camp.He's currently playing for the NBDL's Ashville Altitude. He's played four games and started three. averaging a little over a WHOPPING 4 pts a game.
damn.

Omar Cook...damn...ill let NBDL explain this nigga

Omar Cook

Cook was a second round selection (32nd overall) by the Denver Nuggets in 2001 NBA Draft. Cook was waived by the Nuggets on October 25 and then signed by the Dallas Mavericks on November 25 and waived by Dallas on December 28.

As a freshman, Cook averaged 15.3 ppg, 8.7 apg and 3.0 rpg for the Red Storm. He was named Third All-Big East Conference as a freshman, joining Seton Hall’s Eddie Griffin as the only freshman in the conference to be selected to an All-Conference team. Cook finished second in the nation in assists (8.7 apg) behind Markus Carr of Cal State-Northridge (8.9 apg). His 252 assists set a freshman school record, previously held by Erick Barkley (Portland Trail Blazers) and ranks second on the all-time single-season chart.
He's now averaging almost 10 points a game to go with 8 assist, but his assist to turnover ratio is almost 1 turnover for every two assist. thats not good at all and perhaps the reason he's yet to find time in the NBA

Mateen Cleeves

was that nigga for Michigan state when they won it all in the 2000 NCAA championship.His average nowadays is 13 and 6

Lenny Cooke

^^Antwan Jamison is on the Mavs and is one of the better forwards in the league, and Shane Battier is playing for the Grizzlies and is starting and playing a great role on their successful season.

One player that hasn't had his name mentioned in the NBA is Juan Dixon of the National Champion Maryland Terrapins.
