"The Washington Wizards have several players with the potential to breakout heading into next season. Alex Sarr is one player that most fans not only in Washington, but around the league are keeping theri eyes on. As a former No. 2 overall pick, there's plenty expectations that the French product has to live up to, which in turn puts plenty of eyes on him."
"The Texas product has everything the Wizards are searching for when it comes to a potential cornerstone. Between his talent, work ethic and desire to prove his doubters wrong and his believers right, Johnson's constant chip on his shoulder makes him a player that Washington can build around and a player who could be in the running for the NBA Rookie of the Year award when it's all said and done."
"At the time, the former first round pick seemed like a throw in asset to sweeten the pot for the Wizards to take on the incoming contract tied to Middleton, However, it was evident pretty quickly that while Johnson may have just been viewed as a throw in to some, including by Milwaukee, a change of scenery could be exactly what the raw prospect needed for his career to take off."
Multiple young Washington Wizards possess clear breakout potential heading into the next season. Alex Sarr carries high expectations as a former No. 2 overall pick and draws league-wide attention. Tre Johnson, the No. 6 pick, combines talent, work ethic, and a persistent chip on his shoulder, positioning him as a potential cornerstone and Rookie of the Year candidate. AJ Johnson arrived in a midseason trade and, despite initially being viewed as a throw-in, gained more playing time, displayed the flashes that made him a first-round pick, and produced multiple standout performances as a 20-year-old.
