I like the Bilal pick for the upside. Right time to swing for the fences.

But my second thought was, “Please let this guy be better than Jan Vessely.” He was a highly rated Euro, too, maybe even higher. Won 9 trophies with his Serbian club, year before Wiz drafted him he was FIBA Europe Young Men's Player of the Year.

Here’s hoping Bilal reaches his potential. I’ll be rooting for him.

When was the last time the Wiz drafted outside the top 3 picks where this board was happy about it? There seems to be some hope!

I just always remember those situations being stupid. Always reminds me of Pierce, Rip Hamilton (kinda), Caron Butler, that dude everyone loved back in like '19 that lasted into the 20's (especially pif), seems like most of the time that happens, NBA teams are just getting too cute and making a big mistake.

Yep.

In this range, I think he's a no-brainer. I wonder if teams found something. That's the only thing that makes sense.
