Washington Wizards: Kelly Oubre Has Infused Team With Playoff Swag

The Washington Wizards have had confident, young players in their locker room before.

To an outsider without any NBA knowledge, Jordan Crawford looked and carried himself like a star. When the media spoke to Crawford, he replied with a low tone, often making headlines for saying things only a superstar (and LaVar Ball) can get away with.

Crawford, along with Andray Blatche, Nick Young and JaVale McGee had an irrational amount of confidence in themselves – confidence that eventually led to their respective demises. Their self-belief created roadblocks between them and their development, not allowing the coaching staff to work on their obvious flaws.
