2024 NBA Mock Draft: Pistons go against grain, Spurs get Wembanyama help

#2: Washington Wizards select Zaccharie Risacher 

Many mocks have them taking Donovan Clingan, which makes sense given their need at center, but they can find their big man later in the draft and Risacher’s upside is too much to pass up. 

Deni Avdija did come on at the end of this season, so it might be redundant, but taking Risacher would allow Washington to shop Kyle Kuzma, which might be the best way for them to kickstart their rebuild for real. 

Kuzma is another guy the Pistons might show some interest in if he hits the market and given that there have been reports of the Wizards seeking another pick in the first round, don’t rule out Detroit trading their pick for Kuzma.
