"The Washington Wizards have a lot riding on the development of Alex Sarr, who's emerged as a potenmtial cornerstone for the team to build around. Sarr, who was selected with the No. 2 overall pick in arguably the weakest NBA Draft class in recent years, has given the team's fanbase a sense of hope that the years of mediocre play could finally be nearing an end."
"In the mist of a huge sophomore leap, averaging 19.1 points, 8.6 rebounds and 3.3 assists, while shooting 51.5% from field goal range and 34.6% from beyond the arc, it's easy to see how the 7-footer's play has given the team's fanbase confidence. The versatile forward has taken a step forward in nearly every area of his game and not only does he look to be an elite two-way prospect, but he's shown flashes that put him in rare company."
"In a class of his own with generational talent and San Antonio Spurs star Victor Wembanyama, Sarr's versatility has made him look like one of the most dynamic big men in the league this season. However, for him to take the major step forward that will allow him to reach the extremely high potential he has, Sarr needs to make one minor improvement."
Alex Sarr, a 7-foot forward, has taken a significant sophomore leap, averaging 19.1 points, 8.6 rebounds and 3.3 assists while shooting 51.5% overall and 34.6% from three. His scoring in the paint, floor spacing and improving decision-making have expanded the team's offensive potential and forced opposing defenses to allocate extra attention. He shows two-way versatility and rare flashes that compare him to elite young bigs. To reach his extremely high ceiling and become a reliable cornerstone, Sarr must specifically develop consistent short-roll passing to better serve as a playmaker when defenses collapse on him.
