I would say that Fizer was a bust if it were not for who drafted him. I think he was picked way too high!

It's not a list of busts, it's a list of players who one way or another wasted their talent.
Don Nelson had critical words for him: "I told him if he goes down to the D-League and isn't a dominant player, there should be red flags all over the place, and he should be the first to notice. He's not only not dominating, he's not playing very well. He's a long-term project. I really liked him the first week of training camp, but I assumed there would be great progress. [...] He hasn't gotten better one bit."
In September, 2010, O'Bryant signed a contract with Fujian Xunxing of the Chinese Basketball Association, but he was later released because of poor performances in pre-season, as well as a reported lack of effort in practice.
