The Washington Wizards have assembled a roster loaded with premium lottery talent.
When you look at this lineup, the draft pedigree is insane.
🔹Anthony Davis (1st pick; 2012)
🔹Deandre Ayton (1st pick; 2018)
🔹Trae Young (5th pick; 2018)
🔹Bilal Coulibaly (7th pick; 2023)
🔹Alex Sarr (2nd pick; 2024)
🔹Tre Johnson (6th pick; 2025)
🔹AJ Dybantsa (1st pick; 2026)
They are now rolling out three No. 1 overall picks, surrounded by a core consisting almost entirely of top-10 selections.
Between established vets and elite young prospects, D.C. is absolutely loaded with high-end draft capital.
Can all of this elite talent finally put it all together and translate into wins for the Wizards?
Victor Wembanyama makes a strong case for why he should be the MVP 🤔
"My first one would be that defense is 50% of the game and that it is undervalued so far in the MVP race. I believe I'm the most impactful player defensively in the league. Second argument would be that we almost swept OKC in the season, and we dominated them three times with their real team... My third argument would be that offense impact is not just points."
🚨 BREAKING: Shai Gilgeous-Alexander just TIED Wilt Chamberlain's record for 126 consecutive 20-point games.
Let that sink in. This record hasn't been touched since 1963.
We’re talking about two full calendar years of never scoring fewer than 20 points.
No off nights. No early exits.
When you look at this list, it’s basically a pantheon of basketball gods:
1️⃣ SGA / Wilt: 126 games
2️⃣ Wilt: 92 games
3️⃣ Oscar Robertson: 79 games
4️⃣ MJ / KD: 72 games
The math is simple: One more 20-point night and Shai stands alone at the top of the mountain.
We are witnessing a historic, generational run that we might not see again for another 60 years.
The NBA MVP trophy is basically just waiting for his address at this point 🏆
SGA is currently top 5 in the NBA in points per game minus free throws this season:
Averaging 23.8 PPG without free throws.
Don’t let the narratives fool you.
