Every time I've done one of these "record of futility" searches, I've always been impressed with how many Wizards/Bullets players show up.

Digging deeper into the numbers, I see that Vesely isn't quite as epically sucky as I had thought. His incredible feat of accumulating more fouls than points, rebounds and assists has been duplicated 20 times. Here is a list of the 20 players who have totaled more fouls than points, rebounds or assists, while playing at least 200 minutes:Code: Select all

Vesely is sitting pretty at 191 minutes, anxiously awaiting to join the club. The question is, will he maintain his remarkable pace for an entire season, or will he at some point "break out" and manage to score 10 points or so in a game and ruin his average.
By the way, LOL at Jason Collins.
Oberto did it as a Wizard. Oberto was epically bad. Check out these games scores over 57 games:
http://www.basketball-reference.com/pla ... elog/2010/
Francisco Oberto, per-36 minutes: 4.6 pts, 5.8 rebs, 2.8 asts, 0.6 stls, 0.5 blks, 2.0 tos, 6.7 fouls
Unbelievably, Jan Vesely is approaching Oberto-bad territory as a Wizard.
Jan Vesely, per-36: 5.8 pts, 6.4 rebs, 2.1 asts, 1.1 stls, 0.8 blks, 1.9 tos, 7.0 fouls
Last season, however, Vesely scored more, rebounded more, and fouled less. He can't be as bad as he he's playing now.

Bye bye Beal.

Vesely is moving up the charts. His PF's continue to exceed his points, rebounds and assists. With 272 total minutes played, he is now 16th on this ignominious list when ranked by total minutes played.
(Side comment: another illustrious former Wizard is achieving this milestone this year. Jared Jeffries is currently totaling 35 fouls, 25 points, 26 rebounds and 9 assists for Portland. But with just 183 total minutes played, he probably won't catch Vesely.)
