In the 2009 NBA Draft, there were a number of selections that didn’t make much sense. Here’s a look at the five worst picks of the draft:

The Cuse and I will have to become pretty familiar this upcoming season since big things are expected out of them in 08/09.
*Actually made the second free throw attempt
