When Alex Sarr entered the league, the big man immediately was faced with high expectations and rising pressure. Following his draft process saga that led him being surpassed with the No. 1 overall pick that was held by the Atlanta Hawks, just to land with the Washington Wizards, who held the No. 2 overall pick, all eyes immediately focused on the French product.

Sarr has all the tools to be a premiere talent in the NBA and his potential is the exact reason Washington was willing to take the high upside swing on the big man last offseason. As a raw prospect, the Wizards front office and coaching staff knew that immediate results were unlikely when it came to Sarr's development. Throughout his rookie campaign, the 7-footer showed plenty of flashes that made the Wizards brass believe he could eventually prove to be a building block.
