#26: Washington Wizards select Yves Missi
The Wizards get their big man with the uber athletic Missi, who should eventually be a shot-blocking rim runner in the NBA
He’s an explosive athlete who can finish with power around the rim and block shots, which are things all teams are looking for, especially the defensive-challenged Wizards, who were once again at the bottom of the league in team D.
They’d be happy to get a two-way wing and a rim protector in the same draft, guys who fill needs but also have big-time upside.
