I thought these 5 people would rule the alliance, but now many people have become parallels, and 76 people have chosen two!

Most of the upper limit that a player can reach in the NBA has been determined before the draft. After all, having top talent can easily allow a player to reach a height that many players will not reach in their entire lives. Although there are some players who have succeeded through hard work in history, this is rare. However, there are also some players whose talents seem to be top-notch and who were once considered to dominate the league, but the result did not meet expectations. Next, let’s take a look at 5 such players.
Zion
Zion was ranked first in the league before entering the league. Before entering the league, his weight was ranked in the top five levels of the league at that time, and most of those heavier than him could not play in rotation. But the bouncing body test is even better than Jordan. The top strength and bounce are also considered by scouts to be the next successor James, who believes that his talent can be comparable to Jordan and James, so the league has highly praised him before entering the NBA.
However, after entering the league, Zion is indeed becoming more and more disappointing. Although he averaged 27+ per game in the second year of his career, his attendance rate is also very low due to injuries. He spent most of his career in a quit. For this reason, the league gave up continuing to praise him. In addition, he did not work hard enough. Although he was talented, he was also an All-Star player because of his slackness and lack of self-discipline.
Morant
Morant and Zion were in the same draft. At first, he was not valued too much. After all, the three Duke masters looked no worse than him, and they were more praised. After entering the league, Morant relied on his own ability to win recognition. He led the team to ninth place in the Western Conference in the first year of his career, led the team to the playoffs in the second year, and led the team to the second place in the Western Conference in the third and fourth years.
His team-leading ability and excellent talent made the league start to face him and train him as a future facade. As a result, after winning the contract with a super top salary, Morant began to float away. He was warned by the league with a gun, but he still did not repent and continued to hold a gun. Because of the frequent vicious incidents, Morant lost the league's praise. In addition, he only relied on talent to play and did not develop technology, which was already a gap with young stars on the front line of the league.
Simmons
Simmons was the No. 1 pick in 2016, entering the league earlier than Morant and Zion. At that time, Simmons' talent was also very amazing. His height was 2.11 meters, the speed and explosive power of a defender, and his top organizational ability. At that time, his template was James and the Magic, and James even said bluntly: his upper limit would be higher than mine. A template that can really play from No. 1 to No. 5, the 76ers won him with the No. 1 pick without any suspense.
Simmons quickly realized his talent after entering the league. He was selected as the All-Star in the third year of his career. He was selected for two consecutive years. He reached this level by relying on his talent. However, Simmons does not train hard. Although he will post photos and practice hard every offseason, he probably has fake efforts, unable to develop three-pointers, and free throws are not reliable. He has not found a job now. It is a pity that it is so miserable.
Fultz
Fultz is the No. 1 pick in 2017. The original draft template was called a combination of Harden and Curry. Although the three-pointers are not as perverted and accurate as Curry, his three-pointers are also very outstanding. His athletic ability is even better than the rookie Harden of that year. It is very rare for a point guard to jump from the free throw line to dunk. In order to get his 76ers, he also traded his own Tanhua lottery and the first round pick in exchange for the Celtics' No. 1 pick. He was selected for fear of being snatched away by the Lakers.
Fultz is different from the above. He is a very hard-working player and his playing style is extremely calm. He has the temperament of Ross back then, but he is also very similar to Ross. His talent is too outstanding, and his fate is unfair to him. When he enters the league, he encounters Yip's disease, a strange disease in which muscles cannot remember shooting. Even though he has been working hard to improve himself, he just can't find the feeling of shooting. Now he has no ball to play and has fallen out of the water.
Wiggins
Wiggins is the No. 1 pick in the draft in 2014. This was considered the most chance to succeed James. To clarify here, it is not James, but Carter. With excellent body shape and bounce, and rich skills, Wiggins has attracted much attention in his rookie season, but not all players with top talents will do their best to pursue historical status and great honors. Wiggins does not have such star temperament.
Wiggins prefers to be a role player. He only knows how to do the tasks assigned by the coach and has no leader temperament at all, so he was awarded the title of Health Mamba. Although he was selected as an All-Star in the Warriors and helped the team win the championship, he is now an excellent blue-collar player in the Heat, which is a very unfortunate. Having said that, what do you want to say about these five players? Welcome to leave a message for discussion.
