Will Dawkins sends a telling message about the Wizards' NBA Draft plans
""The draft is a little further [away], but the priority on May 10th is just [to] get lucky. Get lucky. The way I look at it is: We're already fortunate enough to add a top-five player in this draft.""
""I feel very confident that our staff will be able to pick the best player if we have 5. I'm very comfortable at 5. It's the most likely outcome. There's a 48 percent chance we're picking at 5, and our fans should be excited about who we add.""
""The way I look at it is: We also have a 14 percent chance to do better at 1 and a 27 percent chance to be [in the] top two and over 35 percent chance to add [a] top-three [pick]. Those are pretty good odds, knowing that you're already sitting at 5.""

General manager Will Dawkins expressed a desire to get lucky in the draft, emphasizing the importance of the upcoming selection. He noted the team's chances of picking at various positions, including a 48 percent likelihood of selecting fifth.
