There will probably soon be two French players in the American federal capital. After Bilal Coulibaly last year, the Washington Wizards should draft Alexandre Sarr in a few days. The 19-year-old pivot, long announced as a potential first pickis now presented as a “lock” in second position according to Draft Express.
It was recently rumored that the young man’s camp was trying to avoid landing him with the Atlanta Hawks, holders of the first pick. A profitable strategy according to current rumors – which must obviously be taken with a pinch of salt. But if the speculation were to be true, the Hawks would have to choose between Zaccharie Risacherthe other tricolor announced in the top-2, and Donovan Clingan. Selecting the American interior so high seems daring to us. The franchise can also decide to transfer its pick.
The Wizards need a rim and waist protector in the paint, even more so following the departure of Daniel Gafford last February. Alexandre Sarr has the right profile. He is a long, athletic player with intriguing potential. He and Coulibaly can embody the future of Washington by forming a very interesting defensive pair.
