Just a random thought that crossed my mind tonight.

Who are some other mega hyped prospects that have lived up to there billing?

Serena Williams is the standard bearer for teenage phenoms.

While Tiger and the Williams sisters were hyped, they didn’t have Sports Illustrated covers and constant National attention due to the popularity of their sport at the time

Tiger had the Carson show as an extremely young kid, but only fans that followed golf were aware of his rising as a teenager.

Kobe was the 13th pick in the draft. The hype was nowhere near Lebron
