I feel like most of the recent top Center draft picks have gone on to be busts, or at least huge disappointments. Is Embiid next? I don't understand the hype around him.

He never looked like a potential superstar to me when I watched him. Nerlens Noel might end up the better player.

Injuries will be the only thing stopping him. The talent is clearly there.
