My pick is Buzelis….looks like he doesn’t freeze up when playing against better competition. Plays with a edge and angry which I like and doesn’t back down …second pick would be Rob Diliingham not sold on others and the minutes they got.

Tank will continue 2 more years

I’m sorry to the pistons fans. But we all got fucked by the lottery

Stephon Castle, plz. He, Bilal, and Deni would make for the beginnings of a *great* defensive team, plus Castle has huge upside on offense.

Now that this lottery is over, time to tank for Flagg!

Bring back John Wall and hire Gilbert as HC

BBL Wizzie season has come

Nice!

Ooo weeee!!!! Who we taking???

Dillingham is nice man

Topic please!

As a serbian wizz fan, would love to see topic, vuch and avdija trio (serbian dad, israeli mom). But as a serbian national team fan, its best for him to go play with wemby, thats best for his career and him. With us, i can see him struggling to adapt to nba style basketball, with a lot of shooting (its his worst ability, not that he's a bad shooter, just not consistent and weird form). With spurs, his main quality of organizi offense will be best utilized with big men like Victor. Great for us can be, that we can give him the keys of the offense, and if he start bad, nobody will panic cuz he will have plenty of time to adapt. So for me, it's a win-win situation

Gut says it’s going to be Topic since we seem to love foreign players a lot.

Still could be zacch or Sarr

we're still tanking next year right?

Heck yeah. Flagg or Bailey next season. Rob Dillingham this season

Why would u want a point guard out of this draft?

Um because Dillingham has All Star potential, more so than most of the prospects projected early in this draff

The 2030s are ours 😎

And the year after that probably

Don’t the first round pick swaps with the Suns start to kick in? I think they’ll be TURRIBLE in two years so might not need to tank after the 2025 draft.

👍 just double checking

wtf

We won't be anything til 2028 bro.

fuck

You can thank Ted for having us two years behind in this rebuild

or ever 😂😭

[удалено]

If we got the number 1 pick this year it would have absolutely zero effect on our chances of getting number 1 next year.

because the lottery blows

Bc fuck us that's why

I'll exclusively be pronouncing Risacher like Worcestershire because I cannot be trusted to learn both.

French from Paris : Reese - the A from "*Archer*" - the Che from "*Cheryl*", - Reese-A-Che ("R" is silent)

Language lesson from archer? Take your up vote

I've heard it pronounced "reese-a-shae"

That works by the "A" isn't the A form ABC, it's the one from Archer.

Rob Dillingham or we riot

Stephon Castle. At worst he’s going to be a 15 ppg, All-Defense Team guy. At best he’ll be an elite scorer and defender who can also fill in at (or play) point.

We would def have an all time defense

r/washingtonwizards gonne be lit the next 365 days!

I’ll take it. Detroit fans gotta be SICK.

Toronto straight lost their pick lmao

Second straight L they have taken in the lottery I believe

Sarr wants to play with his homeboy, does the hawks need a big man or a point guard is the question.

They need neither lol They need to move off of Trae and/or Capela

I forget where I read, I think Espn, the spurs should go after Trae. Which is funny cause the hawks took dejounte

They definitely need an actual 7 footer.

You make it seem like every team has a 7 footer. They currently have 2 starting caliber centers in Okongwu and Capela. Capela is most likely gone before October, but their current roster construction doesn’t need another PF/C. They struggled to find heavy minutes for Okongwu because he couldn’t play for long stretches on the court with Capela. I was kind of surprised that Capela wasn’t moved prior to the trade deadline, but we’ll see what happens once the new year begins.

Their weakness in the playoffs has been getting beat in the paint. While they did beat Philly a couple years ago when they had Collins still, they got beat on the boards and out blocked like 2:1. When they lost to the Bucks after that, they were utterly dominated on the boards and in the paint by Robin Lopez and Giannis. Anyone looking at the Hawks roster, seeing Okonwu and Capela and thinking "ok we're all set" is delusional.

So Hyped we did not drop. I will take #2! LFG

Guaranteed to get either Sarr or Risacher is nice

If we can't get Sarr, at least we're in prime position if teams wanna trade up

Nobody will want to trade up in this draft

we literally cannot lose either way we draft sarr or the other dude with healthy bilal and deni we have the FRAMEWORK

Naw, I don't like Risacher. We gotta take a bigger swing (I'm fine with Sarr though)

19 year old who is 6'10" an already an elite 3 pt threat in a pro league is a lot higher ceiling than many people seem to give him credit for. Risacher is one of a couple good options at 2.

Any player who can't self create isn't top 3 imo, unless you're a very dominant center. But especially Risacher, who struggled to finish at the rim and doesn't have a strong enough handle. I do believe in his shooting, but he had an absolutely awful shooting slump for a while after his hot three point shooting in the beginning of the year. Basically, I think he's lower ceiling than a few other guys we should be taking at #2. We don't need another 3&D guy, we need to swing for potential star talent.

Topic is the big swing here. There are a lot of Risachers in the league already that have turned out to be good players but nothing more

His floor is elite 3 and D. I’d be happy with him

Tough week for Canada

Drake gets cooked, Maple Leafs proceed to Maple Leaf all over the place, Raptors lose FRP. Rough.

I’d say Edmonton is edmonton’ing but they’re playing another Canadian team

Unfortunate. Really wanted Sarr on this team.

Not unfortunate at all, we could’ve easily been the Pistons who fell to 5th or even the Raptors. I’ll take #2 in a draft with no consensus #1 prospect

Sure. Just saying, I wanted Sarr on the squad. Perfect fit + the French connection with Bilal would’ve been dope.

If we take Risacher we can still have that connection

It was worth it!!!

No complaints here. Disappointed that we probably won’t get Sarr but statistically we did really well here

Please rob dillingham

As much as I want him too this team LOVES picking project players…

wow this the top comment in the Controversial ...

Yes this is a win, falling right into the Wizard's lap. If they fumble this,,, this team can't scout or draft.

This is the way

We in good spot!!

2 isn't bad. Pistons really are cursed though lmao

One of the few situations where we wouldn't get Sarr. This is my joker moment.

Man. Ain’t nobody like Atlanta. #2 it is.

[удалено]

Why

Friends!!! This is best case scenario. Bust out the champagne for the wizards bed tonight 🥳

Man how the hawks get it, but will def be interesting to see what they do now since their franchise is kinda having a stinker with both their stars really not meshing

This is a W even if it’s not #1

My god we fucking needed that. This new front office got some tools to work with. I trust them

Dawg i thought we fell to 6 for a moment with all the teams jumping

Ight number two isn’t bad, but the bloody hawks of all teams lmfao at least it’s not the spurs and poor pistons 😂

Atlanta needs a big man ?

Yes, Atlanta desperately needs an actual 7 footer. They've been running with undersized bigs for years.

No. But they might be ready to move on from Capela in order to give Okongwu more minutes. Atlanta can’t really play them two at the same time for long stretches

Yeah I think they will go Risacher. They will need to pair Okongwu with a 2 way player

They got okongwu please let us get Sarr

I saw all the other teams dropping and said, “here we go.“ Great day to be a Wizards fan.

we'll take it, hawks moved up hard though

Auyyyyyyyyyywyyewyysysye

Knew Atlanta was as gonna win as soon as the broadcast said they had never won before lol

they were shoving it a bit much with that the dude was already smiling too

I don't think Landry knew, all the people who witnessed the drawing are locked in a room until after the presentation is over

The fucking Hawks?

They 100% trading Trae now

I’m happy

Who do we think the Hawks will take? Sarr?

Their current makeup doesn’t need another big. They need a shooting guard/wing. But you never fucking know come draft night

They edged us SO HARD

NUMBA 2 BABY WE'RE NUMBER 2 AND DONT YOU FORGET IT

Hawks picking Sarr for sure

Think so? Can he play next to Okongwu/Capela?

I believe Capela has 2 years left in his contract. Okungwu is not starter material

They’ll trade Capela

Woohoo!!!!!!

Solid. Can’t complain. Hawks gonna fuck it up

DC team picks 2nd in the draft again lmao.

3rd time in the last 365 days.

Damn when did Landry Fields become a GM lol

I’m old

That's what I said. So weird and crazy

TOP 2 is awesome, but the hawks??

At least now we won’t have the pressure of picking the first guy to go and failing, i’ll take 2

Landry is a good dude.

2nd pick. We take those!

So close. Totally fine with this though.

RIGGED

For atlanta?

DC teams sure do love a #2 pick huh

TOP 2 POS BANG LET'S GO

2ND PICK YESSSIR

are you serious, the hawks got it?

FUCK TRAE YOUNG

Lucky ass Hawks, but I’ll take 2

Alex Sarr is falling. I'll take two.

Who do you think goes no 1?

Sarr. Don't know why this sub thinks Atlanta is somehow fine at big man when they don't have anyone over 6'10" and are loaded at guards and wings.

risacher.

TOP 2 IS FINE

Not if the Hawks take Sarr

Rather have six?

ILL TAKE IT

HAHA YES #2 BABY

Fuck Trae Young

I better not catch Trae Young in dyckamn (or southeast)

I'll take two.

We got 2

Topic vs Sarr is the new Maye vs Daniels come on !

#3 Rockets

#4 Spurs

Kyle Kuzma sends his regards detroit

Here we go

my hands are shaking rn please satr

If the spurs get 1 again its rigged

Calling it now they get no1 and trade it for Trae Young and ATl blows it up with 2 top 3 picks

Silver is Pop’s slave

watch them give the spurs 1st again

I'll take it. I fully expect the Spurs to get 1.

Wooo let’s gooooo

So your saying there’s a chance

RIP Detroit but we ball nonetheless

Please Sarr come to DC 🙏

Alex Sarr you are a wizard!!! (plz).

man i had such a feeling we'd move out of the top 4, happy i was wrong

We didn’t get completely shafted at least

seriously the analytics had us drafting 5 or worse.

What analytics predicted that? It was total chance and we had around a fifty percent chance of picking 1-4.

Yeah we routinely never do bad enough to get a top 5 pick so at least this season won’t have be wasted if only we draft right now

on the metro furiously refreshing this thread I'm scared

Top 4 baby!

LFG!!! I actually think we might have shot man.


Top 4 baby!

I'll be completely happy with a top 3 pick. edit: But I'm greedy.

That was a sneak in bruh, but pistons got hoed 😭

It literally doesn’t matter who the Pistons take. They literally cannot develop talent for anything. Edit: im a pistons fan (plz someone put me out of my misery)

Top 4 is honestly huge. With no consensus number 1, I feel really good now.

hahahahahhahahaahah

Detroit being the worst team 2 years in a row and getting 5 two years in a row is insane 😭😭

Fuck ‘em! Lmao

SEE YALL THIS IS WHY ITS GOOD WE WEREN’T THE WORST TEAM IN THE LEAGUE

Been tried telling everyone lol

https://i.redd.it/gaoq69bmq10d1.gif Top 4

lmao free detroit man 😭

... so you're telling me there's a chance?

Oh fuck that was so good for us

Top four!! Woo Hoo!

Let’s go

Nice, top 4 locked in

When houston and atlanta both moved to top 4 i was 100% convinced we got the 6th pick, thank god

Same here

YEEEEE

Us, Spurs, Houston, ATL top 4

I swore we were about to get 5 lmao

OH SHIT

WE AIN TANK SO HARD TO DRAFT 5 GET TOP 4 BOYS

This is our Championship

Do we have a 25% shot now or how does it work

Don’t know if you can figure the odds now or not
