Worst NBA Draft comparisons in history

#2 Adam Morrison [Comparison: Larry Bird]

Adam Morrison in action for the Charlotte Bobcats

Armed with a sweet shooting stroke and decent ball-handling skills, Adam Morrison was considered by scouts as one of the best prospects in the 2006 NBA Draft. He was so good in college that he drew comparisons to Hall of Famer Larry Bird.

Raring to make it into the top of the NBA curve, the Charlotte Bobcats selected Morrison with the third overall pick in the draft. His first year with the Bobcats wasn't bad either as he put up fairly decent numbers of 11.8 points, 2.9 rebounds, and 2.4 assists while shooting a good clip from the field.

However, Morrison's career was halted with injuries during his second year in the league, which resulted in them trading him to the Lakers in 2009. He only played a total of 39 games with them before being released in the 2009/10 campaign.

Subsequently playing in Europe before making several attempts to return to the NBA, he failed to break into the final rosters of both the Washington Wizards and Portland Trail Blazers. Currently, he serves as an assistant coach with Mead High School.
