9. Dion Waiters

Dion Waiters has no right to be on this list, and that’s exactly why he finds himself appearing at #9.

Waiters provided Oklahoma City with one of the most enigmatic personalities in NBA history. The 6’4 guard is known for believing he is the next Micheal Jordan-which he very well could be-even while playing with greats such as LeBron James, Kevin Durant and Russell Westbrook.

How many times did you yell at Dion for taking an ill-advised jumper? And how many times did he make that shot? The beauty of Waiters is he always had the confidence to shoot the rock, something we all can relate too. He may not be one of the best Thunder players ever, but he sure did give fans a fun couple of years.
