2024 NBA Mock Draft: Pistons and Bulls make franchise-altering trade

#2: Washington Wizards select Alex Sarr 

This would be a coup for the Wizards, who need talent at center. They currently have Marvin Bagley III slotted in as their starting big man, so they obviously need help. 

Sarr would jumpstart their rebuild and give them a versatile big man who should be able to protect the rim right away, something they desperately need as one of the worst defensive teams in the NBA. 

Washington has long been terrible at stopping opponents in the paint, so this is the perfect pick for them, as they not only get a high-upside talent but one at a position of need.
