In 2001 ESPN made a documentary on the turmoil of the 1986 draft. Been looking for it the last 23 years.

Yinka Dare is the biggest bust ever IMO. Nobody talks about him but he was a disaster for the Nets. They gave him a 6 year deal out the gate and he gave them absolutely nothing on the court whatsoever. He got hurt in 3 minutes tore his ACL and it was over. They thought he was going be the Nigerian version of Shaq. Not even close. He died of a heart attack at like 30 or something. It's interesting that hardly nobody covers his story. He was hyped up coming out of college too but vanished after the NBA. There was no news on him until he died.

dare was drafted 14th overall. rarely do you see 14 overall picks become hailed as hall of famers pre-draft, so it’s not like he’s as big as a bust as a number 1 pick like oden or bennett.

@@shazaalala28 you got to be old enough to remember that he fell in the draft and was projected to go top 3. Go rewatch the draft and look up pre draft predictions. He was looked at as a steal in the draft. Nobody thought he would go outside of the top 5 especially after that NCAA run. He carried George Washington to the sweet 16 and was hyped up big time going into the draft. He was the next pick after Jalen Rose. If Jalen Rose flopped he would be labeled as a bust even at number 13. He was a project but he had hype that's why he went that high. 14 isn't necessarily a low pick

@borganfreeman Yinka Dare is a draft bust, but only because he just wasn't good. I was 29 in 1994 so let's kill the too young noise. Any talk about being a top 5 pick was draft scuttlebutt. Nobody's taking Dare over Robinson, Kidd, Hill, or even Eric Montross (who was a way more polished big man) so let's stop trying to rewrite history.

I mean that says more about the nets if they giving a 6 year deal to the 14th pick like he was a generational prospect 😂

@@borganfreeman ok, but if 13 teams decide that would pick random players over a predicted top 3, then is he really a top 3 pick? maybe according to draft boards, but that isn’t reflective of the view of actual gms. he isn’t a bigger bust than an actual top 3 pick.

No offense, bro, but drug addiction is not stupidity it is a disease just like alcoholism cocaine even took a hold of a pope back in the 1800s where he drank Italian wine laced with cocaine I know from experience from my uncle going in cocaine rages out of nowhere and it would definitely frighten me seeing how much bigger and stronger he was than I was at 18 hopefully he's doing much better and I still love him dearly as someone I'm proud to be his nephew of and as a former crackhead myself, I have to tell you in everybody to have mercy on people who get on this drug yes it is a bad decision, but the hell you go through from such a horrible drug is that including cocaine all in and of itself is something that should be extinct coca leaves should not exist anymore in the way I even got into most drugs and yes you name the drug, I probably done it these are just men who fell into something that was created by Satan himself the bigger they are the Harder They Fall
