Washington Wizards
Eastern · Southeast · proj. 34-48 (▲+10.8)

A 24-year-old rookie wing on a minimum deal who made his mark with toughness — strong defense (65th percentile), opportunistic finishing (84th-percentile inside) and rebounding from the wing across 50 games. The shooting is the swing skill and it isn't there yet (under 30% from three, 20th percentile), so he's a defensive-minded depth piece who needs the jumper to come around.

FAIR VALUEpaid about what he is worth

Market value is an estimate, not a reported figure: what his play is forecast to fetch on the open market in 2026-27 — his current rating, a year older. Cap thresholds are projected for 2026-27 until the league sets them.
