NBA Draft 2019: Mock Draft 2.0
7. player. 142. . Big, Fr.. Oregon. Bol Bol
Few prospects are as difficult to peg as Bol Bol, but the lanky 7-foot-3 big seems destined for the lottery. The Wizards are bordering on an implosion, and at the very least need some sizable changes. Adding a high-upside center to the mix could have benefits.
John Wall‘s contract will be hard to move, which means the 29-year-old will likely stick around. While Bol isn’t an elite screen-setter, his upside as a finisher and spot-up shooter could fit nicely in the Washington frontcourt.
Given his unique skill set and physical tools, Bol has one of the highest ceilings in the draft. His floor is admittedly worrisome, but someone will take the plunge. Few teams seem better suited for that risk than the Wiz.
