The worst lottery draft picks in NBA history

It’s a commonly known fact that many NBA players don’t last in the league very long. But when teams invest their lottery draft picks in a prospect, it is still very disappointing when things don’t work out as expected. Such was the case with Robinson, whom the Sacramento Kings drafted with the fifth pick in the 2012 draft. The very next pick that year? That would be Damian Lillard. Even Harrison Barnes at number 7 would have been a much better selection for the Kings. For Robinson, the disappointment only escalated from there. He was traded to the Rockets less than one year after being drafted. He ended up playing for six teams in just five seasons in the NBA, before finding himself playing in the Russian basketball league.
