2015 NBA Draft: Top 10 Prospects With The Most Bust Potential

School: Kentucky 

Position: PF/C

Size: 7-0, 240 lbs 

Projection: Top-7

When watching a Kentucky Wildcats game this past season, it was almost impossible to not fall in love with WCS. He’s everywhere and always a presence on the defensive end. He can guard positions 2-5 and is extremely athletic — which translates well to the NBA.

Though, he’s extremely rough — and raw — on the offensive end. And drafting a player in the top-10 that is strictly a defensive stud is definitely something I would advise against in the NBA. WCS played three seasons at Kentucky and never really developed an offensive game. Not good.

His ceiling or expectations shouldn’t be too high in the NBA, but being a top-7 draft pick won’t help him any.
