The NBA Draft is only two weeks away and draft workouts and speculations regarding who the Washington Wizards are going to pick are in full swing. With a brand-new front office, it is hard to tell what the Wizards are going to prioritize with their no. 8 pick. Nevertheless, the Wizards need an injection of athleticism and high-end talent. If Jarace Walker falls to no. 8, he would be a great building block to jump-start the Wizards’ rebuild.
Jarace Walker is a versatile forward who could reliably play and guard 3 through 5. Even though his natural position is the power forward, his impressive size and mobility could help him play small ball center, as well as defend in the perimeter.
