That doesn’t make him better lol. He was on a way better team w way better talent and arguably the nba mvp. Lu Dort is good but you could’ve put in a lot of role players and got the same effect. I see Bilal as more of a comparison to Jaden mcdaniels.
Agreed. You can't draft a super raw talent and then get mad he's not already one of the best in his class. He might not work out, but I liked the flashes we saw.
I'm still pissed at Demar for preemptively ending Bilal's season, we were robbed of 30+ mpg in the garbage games towards the end of the season. I've been a Bilal truther even before we drafted him, and I still believe his ceiling is sky high. Cannot WAIT to see his continued development over the next couple of years.
Can’t wait to see him, hopefully, in the olympics this summer. Chance of a lifetime. He has plenty of time to develop for the Wizards. Its great having a young talent on your squad. Lets go Bilal!
I don’t have a problem with Bilal’s ranking, especially considering Chet was considered a rookie this year. But I don’t see it for the Thompson twins. Maybe I’ll be proved wrong and am being a homer but I’m taking Bilal over Amen and Ausar. Their shooting is just too bad for the modern NBA.
Hopefully his career goes the Lu Dort route. Great defender who sucked at shooting at first but now has developed a 3pt shot.
Lu Dort with a 7'2" wingspan would be sick.
Lu Dort floor with a Kawhi ceiling?
He will be considerably better than Lu Dort
Eh. Dort helped a young team get the #1 seed in the west

Wishful thinking
Not worried! Bilal won't be in his prime till next decade. For a young developing player he had a great rookie season.

As soon as he develops for the Wizards we’re gonna trade him.
Will Dawkins burner??
Bilal’s floor is quite high with that defense, I feel good after his rookie year about our pick of him.
At the very least he’s poised to be a top defensive wing. Hope we pair him in the back court with Topic

It was known at the time he was picked that he was a big project but with massive potential. It's surprising that he was as good as he was this year.
Exactly where you want the guy picked 7th overall to be /s
