As the first round of the 2018 NBA Draft was getting underway, Truth About It’s Troy Haliburton addressed the assemblage of Wizards fans, bloggers, writers, and puzzled bystanders at HalfSmoke to ask the question on everyone’s mind: Who are the Wizards going select with their first round pick?
The consensus in the room was Robert Williams, the athletic big man from Texas A&M. In my pre-draft analysis, I figured the Wizards would get a talent infusion by picking one of Williams, Zhaire Smith, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander, Gary Trent Jr.
