Wizards plan is painfully obvious with Donovan Mitchell clone waiting in 2026 draft
"The Washington Wizards have quietly positioned themselves as one of the most intriguing rebuilding teams in one offseason alone. Looking at the young pieces on the roster, headlined by Alex Sarr, Tre Johnson, Bilal Coulibaly and now Kyshawn George as the top prospects on the roster. And that's not even mentioning players like Bub Carrington, Tristan Vukcevic, Will Riley and newly acquired Cam Whitmore."
"Washington has the talent and coaches in place to finally move forward in their rebuild, especially if any of the young prospects on the roster can emerge as a cornerstone player for the Wizards. However, while fans want the Wizards to get back in the mix of the Eastern Conference sooner rather than later, they may be forced to wait at least one more season if Washington's front office has their way. Wizards need to tank for Darryn Peterson"
The Washington roster includes prospects Alex Sarr, Tre Johnson, Bilal Coulibaly, Kyshawn George, Bub Carrington, Tristan Vukcevic, Will Riley and Cam Whitmore. The roster and coaching staff create a foundation for advancement if one of the young players emerges as a cornerstone. After finishing with the second-worst record, Washington missed the No.1 overall pick and selected Tre Johnson at No.6. The franchise could benefit from drafting a generational prospect and may consider intentionally tanking next season to pursue top prospects such as AJ Dybantsa, Cameron Boozer, Nate Ament or Darryn Peterson.
