If he never improves from what he is right now (terrible jump shooter, great finisher in transition, ok free throw shooter who can get to the line, above average to good passer for a PG, sometimes too careless with the ball, can get frustrated with general stupidity of teammates, good rebounder for position, pretty good defender) he would not be a bust.

Just because he hasn't matched the trajectory of fellow number 1 pick Derrick Rose (who happens to be the youngest player ever to win an MVP award) does not make him a bust. .


I don't think Wall will be a bust but your idea of what a bust is is pretty friggen narrow. If the first overall pick meets expectations his rookie year and then doesn't improve at all he could be considered a bust.

He's got one last year to prove he can be a good player or people will give up on him, if he hasn't given up on himself by then.

Green font? Come on man the dudes 21 and has probably the best physical tool set of a PG we've seen in a long time. The Wizards are really cleaning up their team and if they get a nice bounce in the lottery could end up with two of the best products in the draft in the last few years in Wall and Davis. Once he get's that jumper down which is definitely important he'll be absolutely unstoppable
