2 I look back on.
Randy Livingston without the bad knees.
Micheal Beasley without the mental problems. Pros will tell you how insanely gifted that guy is/was.

Ralph Sampson if his knees would have held up.

I'm curious to know what happens if this guy doesn't get hurt entering his prime. He put up 26/7/5 in his last year in Detroit.

JR Richard
Imagine him at full strength and Nolan as a 1-2 punch in the 1980 playoffs

A guy who was a first ballot Hall of Famer is a ‘what if’ for you?

John Daly
People forget how much talent he had because of the caricature he has become. He obviously had the power game but he has a great touch around the greens with his short game. If he had half the mental focus of Nicklaus and control of his private life he could have threatened double digit majors.
Unfortunately, what makes us love him as John Daly are the things that make him a massive 'what if'.

Good underrated one. He looked destined for stardom after the run to the Stanley Cup Finals in '94. He only played in the playoffs twice more in his career after that.
Granted he's still an HOFer, but there's no telling what more he could have accomplished if he didn't have bad knees most of his career.

Came to post Bo.
Not only was he a hall of fame caliber RB, he was a MLB all star.

Gale Sayers if he doesn’t sustain the knee injuries. Only played 6 seasons and dominated. Likely sets the career rushing record and possibly would still have it today.

Bo for obvious reasons.
After watching ESPN 30 for 30 on Marcus Spears he might make the last cut.

What Marcus Lattimore would have done in the NFL if he didn't get injured at South Carolina. Great player and great person.
I was thinking the same thing. Heck even his college career. He was out two years essentially after a stellar freshmen year.

And how could I forget about Bert Jones. He only played 3 full seasons in a 10-year NFL career.
