NBA prospects who didn't help their stock in NCAA Tournament

There is still a lot to be determined when it comes to the NBA Draft, but some prospects let an opportunity slip away by not performing well - or not performing at all - in the NCAA Tournament.

To be fair, some of it isn't all their fault, because players like Washington's Markelle Fultz and Texas' Jarrett Allen didn't even play on teams good enough to earn a tournament bid.

Even so, some players' performance in March could have been the difference between them being a lottery pick or just a first rounder, or even reposition them with another player jockeying for position at the top of NBA draft boards.
