He's definitely been a miss. He only was offered a one year deal last year, which is pretty bad for a #8 pick. That said he's been a useful player. He's a good defender and rebounder. He is literally one of the worst offensive players in the league though.

How about 10 of em. rudy gay, channing frye, jamal Crawford, andre miller, larry hughes, Kerry kittles, Brandan Wright, Jordan Hill, Brandon Knight, Terrence Ross
AFA was in the classic position of a borderline candidate drafted on size and potential. He was an elite rebounder on the college level and that typically translates to the NBA. But he had very little offensive game. He could have stayed and worked on his game for another year (or even two) or he could take the money and supposedly work on his game in the NBA. He basically needed to do what Howard did - expand his range and add a jumper with potential 3-point ability. Howard added that in his junior and senior years.
Heck, for all we know if we had AFA for another couple years, we might still have [Redacted]
If we had AFA, Dino probably never gets canned.
