Agree. The top 4-5 teams in the draft already know who they want.

Now that Dybantsa is officially on the roster, the coach with the hottest seat in the league (aside from Micah Nori) is Brian Keefe. Wizards need to be playing .500 basketball by the all-star break or he'll be canned for a legit HC.

I have no access to a tv to watch this on

I don't mind posting selections AFTER they've been made. Just not before.

That’s a fair compromise, please do

1. AJ

If Peterson is healthy, this isn't going to look good.

Oh please. AJ was the consensus number 1 pick of this draft for most of the last college season.

Was hoping he'd drop to 2, but the Wizards have a bright future.
