The Cavaliers took one of the biggest busts in NBA history, but it all worked out in the end.
The Cleveland Cavaliers are getting set to pick 20th in the NBA Draft on Wednesday night. Well, that's if they don't ultimately trade the pick.
Cleveland selected UNLV forward Anthony Bennett, who actually drew comparisons to Larry Johnson at the time. Looking back, the comparison should have stopped and ended at them both being UNLV products. Gobert went 27th overall. Oladipo could have been great, but injuries have derailed his career. The rest of those guys look more like the types of players where you would say, "Wow, I can't believe they got this guy in the second round. What a steal!" rather than them being the clear best players out of the 60 picks.
