Who is currently the biggest waste of talent in the NBA?

[QuinSnydersHair]

Dwight Howard.

So true. A legit 7 footer who can jump out of the roof and bench a ton and yet he can only score 20 a night. Think about that. Goofy-*** Hayward can score 18 a night and he isn't five feet from the basket on offense.

From the perspective of the Jazz Ostertag and Fess could have been special if they had any desire to try.

Fess more then Tag. Fess had tones more ability,

Marvin Williams.
Number 2 pick putting up sub 10 points per game.

The OP was asking "currently" so if we dive into the history we can get more examples for underachieving I guess.

Sam Bowie anyone?

Keith Van Horn?

A few no one has mentioned thus far:

Jan Vesely (looked so good in draft videos), OJ Mayo, and Bargnani.

Mayo is alright. I bet the Grizzlies regret trading for him though.

Yes he was. Could be a lot better. I rooted for him instead of Duncan back then.
