Darko Milicic is considered one of the biggest NBA draft busts in league history. More than 20 years after the initial moment, the former Serbian player remembered how he wasn't ready to be in the NBA. 
2023-10-25
Darko Milicic's career trajectory was defined by an excessive abuse of his own potential. After spending nine years in the top league, the second pick in the 2003 NBA Draft ended up being almost an outcast and deemed unemployable since he was almost impossible to work with.
