    As a lifelong Wizards fan I’m extremely pleased with the progression of Alex Sarr

      If you are a lifelong Wizards fan then you are truly a real basketball fan. I'm a Boston fan and I know it's easier to root for a winning team than a loosing one. Salute

      @The way I look at it Steph Curry and the warriors gave me more hope because the warriors had been trash since like the 70’s (same as the wizards) but then they got Steph and boom they champions again. Few franchises are like Boston and LA where guranteed each decade you’ll get atleast one chip. I might get one Wizards run my entire lifetime but I know it’ll be worth it.

    Sarr's been arguably the best rookie since McCain went down w injury. The best through December.

    Other than McClain, sarr has been the best rookie this month, the most consistent one too. Now I see why most gm had him 1. If he keep up like this he will be roy

    Imo Risasher is in a very good position.. He's an important member of a winning team and coach Quinn is great at developing players..He s just 19 with a great work ethic..His path to success is a hard one but I m sure he ll be a very successful NBA player and maybe in 5 years an all a star.. Btw what's your opinion of Ron Holland??

    If we were doing a redraft of this class, I'd have Sarr No. 1, followed closely by Risacher at No. 2.

    Mister Barlow where is the problem with Zachary Risacher . Vous avez le droit de penser qu'il s'agit d'une draft faible , mais on ne juge pas une classe juste au milieu de la première saison mais après 2 ans dans la ligue.

    imagine needing an MVP candidate to consider a draft class strong lmao. That is NOT what determines a draft class' strength. Oh no, it doesn't compare to 2018 which is legit top 3-5 class of all time!!! Must be weak!!!! Yawn .I cannot wait to remind all of you how you made these laughable claims when the dust settles. And I mean ALL of you. You talking heads and the "experts" you get your opinions from are all in lock-step.
    I'm old enough to remember y'all thinking Mobley was an elite prospect and Sarr is his clone yet he's a bum? It's so funny. We aren't even getting Carter, Topic or Holmes yet due to injury. And unlike most years, everyone is blocked because bad teams they got drafted by have had years of taking young players and they still don't know about them yet. While teams trying to compete have quality vets being paid big money blocking others.
    Just relax, 3 years from now it will be obvious that this is a well above average draft class and nowhere near "weakest draft class since 2000" like is thrown around so much.
