In 2010, the Wizards found their cornerstone point guard in Kentucky. Two years later, the Wizards may be headed back to the Bluegrass State when the NBA Draft comes around again, and there could be more than one option for the taking. Here’s how the best of the Wildcats could fit: Anthony Davis, 6-foot-10, PF » With every game he plays, it’s becoming clearer that the 18-year-old Davis (14.0 points, 10.0 rebounds, 4.8 blocks per game) is likely to be the consensus No. 1 pick just as Wall was in 2010. Except this time there’s no Evan Turner as a clear No. 2.
Should they claim a second lottery victory in three seasons, the Wizards won’t be able to resist Davis, a long, tough and defensive-minded power forward who rebounds and could provide added force next to JaVale McGee (if he stays for a reasonable price), making the paint a terrifying place for opponents.
