I'm still bored so will continue my theme of worst players. Today is the day of worst fake Brit. Basically the American you sign whos gran once got felt up by an soldier in ww2.
Rules
* Players mustve played at least 1 full season or the equivalent games, let's say 20
* Must be during your BBL days
* Must be from a season at your club or half the league would just pick Jamal when he was decent for many clubs
My choice has been slightly affected by coaching with my 2 choices so I'm picking Shawn Shelton. He was out classed and not strong enough for his position over here. He was flourishing in Italy this season though often scoring 30+ per game

For the first decade or so of post-Bosman, the BBL limited naturalised Brits. It did seem to act as a bit of quality control. The current system seems to give plastic Brits some kind of God-like status. Speaking of which, I bring you Randy Webster from our final BBL season. Utterly useless. Shot 10/30 inside the arc, 10/51 outside it, averaged 2.1 points and one board per game. He would have been challenged by Taron Terhan from the same season. He was a dwarf who thought that he could run through 6'10" guys, he lasted five games, which was about six too many.

If you’re saying Jamal you haven’t been watching/concentrating. There are fake Brits who haven’t got on court.. Jamal contributed to championships...

Jamal Williams and Anthony Martin have won all kinds over here and contributed well... honestly Im baffled sometimes.
Heres one for you who happens to have contributed less than those two - Joe Scott.
Edit - probably doesnt count as hes italian american, but still.
What about the guy at Phoenix who got in bother for harrassing the lass at the gym?

Jamal and Anthony Martin definitely contributed their fair share of positive play whilst in the BBL.
One player I can’t say the same for is Joel Barkers. Somehow wrangled his way onto the Denver Nuggets Summer League squad a fair few years ago (a surprising amount of duds make it onto those rosters), which was enough to convince London Lions that he would be a useful asset. Not even close. He looked well out of his depth in the BBL.

what thread are we doing here ? Worst in terms of playing ability or worst in terms of the realness of their claim to be "British" ?
