The Washington Wizards are beginning their rebuild with one major question: Who will emerge as the team’s leader?
On the surface, you might think that Kyle Kuzma or Jordan Poole will be those players. They are going to be paid the most and should expect to be among the Wizards’ biggest contributors. And when you think about it, Kuzma at least should be one of those leaders. Ava Wallace of The Washington Post wrote a feature about Kuzma embracing his opportunity with the Wizards this past Friday.
But according to an article that Bijan Todd of Monumental Sports Network wrote recently, it isn’t always the case where Kuzma and Poole will be the leaders while everyone else follows.
