the best NBA player on most nights. But he is clearly carrying about 20 lbs too much weight and doesn't seem to care. He gets gassed and injured late in the season. Dude could hire personal chefs and trainers who literally tell him what to eat and how to train every day and he's too lazy. Just amazes me.
Ben Simmons came into the league and his comp was Magic Johnson. So much talent and height. Dude has been so lazy with his shot. Made zero effort to work on it or improve it and is now considered one of the biggest wastes of talent ever.
Shaq was another guy who shaved at least 3 years off his prime by constantly being out of shape. He could have won several more titles and been in the argument for the best center of all time, but he was too lazy.
James Harden is another one.
Who are some other lazy athletes who wasted a ton of talent?
