Getting to know the Go-Go: Michael Foster Jr.

Next up in our series of noteworthy members of the Capital City Go-Go, the Wizards’ G League affiliate, is Michael Foster Jr. He is a 6-8 big man who went to the G League Ignite instead of college in 2021-2022 and has been playing in the G League ever since.

Despite entering his fourth season of professional basketball, Foster Jr. has yet to turn 22 years old which gives additional hope for his long-term upside. However, as an undersized big man, Foster Jr. doesn’t currently do much to space the floor or protect the rim. Both of which will limit his NBA opportunities unless he can show he’s so elite at other skills they value that they’re willing to ignore any deficiencies elsewhere.
