Wizards News: Who Experts Expect Team to Select With #2 Pick

The Washington Wizards' long-term rebuild received a boost on Sunday.

The Wizards won the No. 2 overall pick in the NBA draft lottery.

They have the potential to land a Frenchman in the first round for the second straight year after they chose Bilal Couilbaly last season.

Zaccharie Risacher could be the ideal fit for the Wizards as long as Alex Sarr ends up at No. 1 with the Atlanta Hawks.

Risacher is one of a few scoring options the Wizards can pursue with the No. 2 pick to add to their young core of Couilbaly, Deni Avdija, Jordan Poole and Kyle Kuzma.
