Imo move bonga over and give him spot minutes at the 4 and 5 try him out at small ball center. Yes he's thin but if he packs on some beef in the off season I can see him being more at home as that utility knife 4 small ball 5 the league loves so much.
I wanna see Mathews and Robinson both get playing time. I like young Gunner type shooters. **** look how it worked out for Miami.

Bonga is too small to play 5. Perhaps that's a role he can ultimately fill, but not now. The guy isn't even 220 pounds yet. We have so many better options at 5. Why consider Bonga?
If there's anybody on the roster to play small ball center, it's Hachimura. At least he has the strength to offer some token resistance to a big post player.
And I don't want to see Mathews and Robinson together because we already have a bunch of other wings that are better than either of those guys. Playing them both means you are benching Beal, Brown or Bertans - our 3 best players. It should be one at time. For now, play Mathews since he is healthy and he knows the system. Maybe after a few games, you can sit Mathews and play Robinson as the backup SG.

I just don't wanna sit Mathews I really like him. Plus yeah bonga needs to add some bull but I think he's destined for he 4 sooner or later anyway.

I bet Rui did a lot of work on his 3 during his time off. He looks a lot more confident shooting it now. Before his injury at times it seemed like he was avoiding the 3.

Mahinmi has insane hands, wish Wagner and Bryant had those instincts.

People really underestimate what going to a team that believes in you can do for a young kid. With the Wiz, Robinson will have an established role coming in for Beal.

It might sound weird to say, but I expect the Wiz to make the playoffs.

It would be nice if the refs ever called an offensive foul on Memphis. Valanciunas commits a foul almost every time he touches the ball.

Why is Bertans not getting any love for 6th man award?
