2018 NBA Draft: Lake Show Life Mock Draft 1.0
player. 142. . Forward/Center. Texas A&M. Robert Williams. 15
After being defeated by the Toronto Raptors in the first round of the Eastern Conference Playoffs, the Washington Wizards will be attempting to add a good young player to their talented roster.
With the 15th overall pick, the Wizards will be adding one of the most athletic players in the draft, as they will be taking Robert Williams from Texas A&M. Williams is listed at 6’9”, but his 7’4” wingspan helped him establish himself as one of the best big men in the country.
Adding Williams to the Wizards could be a lot of fun, as Washington already has one of the best backcourt duos in the NBA. With John Wall and Bradley Beal, adding Williams into that mix could help the Wizards immensely in transition.
Wall is one of the best guards in the league in the open court, and him running with Williams would result in plenty of highlights. While Williams is a great athlete, he does have some work to do as a basketball player. Being the best athlete on the floor in college can help, but in the NBA, Williams will have to work on his basketball IQ and not be able to rely only on his athletic ability.
