The Wizards Should Draft John Wall, or Should They?

The Washington Wizards hold the number one pick of the 2010 NBA Draft after winning the lottery.  Now the questions begin.

Should the Wizards take John Wall? Should they take Evan Turner? Should they take someone they need in the team like DeMarcus Cousins?  The Wizards traded away all of their big men Brendan Haywood, and Antawan Jamison, so a dominant big man is something they need.  All of these are questions for this Washington team, and many more are to come, as the draft is over a month away.

The question still remains should Washington go for their needs, or stick with drafting the talent right now. Pick the best player.  We all know who that is, John Wall, or is it?  Evan Turner is an interesting prospect, and may be able to effectively replace what they lost with Caron Butler; they already have Gilbert Arenas to play the point guard position.

But so what if Gilbert Arenas is a point guard, maybe putting Wall in to run the point will allow Arenas to move to the shooting guard position?  He always seemed like he was more of a shooting guard. Arenas and Wall paired up would be an interesting and deadly combination, with Arenas’ shooting ability and Wall’s ball distribution skills they would be a great compliment to each other.

The Wizards already have a player to build around with Agent Zero, and adding John Wall can only make it better. Wall is looking for a bright future and the Wizards will have one of the strongest guard-combos in the league in the next few years.

Cousins, Wall, Turner who knows what the right choice is, but the Wizards at least have one good thing going for them they get to pick first.
