As we are witnessing in this year's NCAA Tournament, many of the prospects that the Wizards are in position to draft are on display. I currently have the 2012 NBA Draft top 5 for the Wizards as follows:
- Anthony Davis - Just...I'm slightly fearful of another freakish athlete type, but you can't look at guys in a vacuum that way. Just appears to be a great kid who's still growing into his body. If I didn't know any better, I'd think the kid was a blossoming guard, who almost overnight had a dramatic growth spurt and is now learning to be a big man while still having some of the skillset of a guard. Oh..that IS what happened?
- Michael Kidd-Gilchrist - My friend Hue RAVES about this guy. He has prototypical size for a 3, all the intangibles you want out of a player, and just seems to always be where he needs to be. An absolute hound on defense, and appears to have the work ethic and want to improve his jump shot.
- Bradley Beal - Color me impressed with what little I've seen of him. He's a short 2, but when "Ray Allen meets Eric Gordon" is the description that Chad Ford gives him, I'm too excited to care.
- Thomas Robinson - Local product, cold monster on the glass. Intent on learning and excelling at his craft. He and Davis are power forwards, which would compromise Booker, but I think you have to take the chance.
- Harrison Barnes - Despite his horrible performance against Ohio, he still projects to be a 3 in the NBA that can put the ball in the hoop, which is by the way a glaring need for this team.
