  1. So long as we don’t pick Holland, I’m happy. Topic is a solid pick.

    Looks legit to me. In my top 5 right now.

    Excellent court vision, sets up his teammates beautifully. Looks like a true QB, and has good size. Can really push the pace. Can shoot off the dribble 3’s, and finishes well with both hands at the rim.

    His D is very questionable. He will likely need to be “hidden” on D. His catch and shoot mechanics are weird. And he hasn’t shown a mid-range game.

    I would probably take Sarr, Collier Risacher, and Williams before him at the moment.

  3. His offense looks legit, I’m just concerned about his defense. Tired of watching guards that will be BBQ chicken for their opponents

    They would have to buyout his contract or let him stay for a few more years oversees which wouldn’t be ideal. He also isn’t as chiseled as Luka Donic. Collier still feels like the best guard available but that speaks to just how good he is — rather than it being a diss to Topic.

    (Also, don’t say ‘Oh he will be perfect to tank for Cooper Flagg.’)

    Bilal looks like a piece so far. I’m just gonna trust the new front office for now

    The way that these kids are developing over in Europe, I’d have ZERO issue with this.

  7. It’s a scary idea but this draft is incredibly weak at the top. To me if you want to go the safe route you take Sarr or Collier. Both guys look like NBA starters but probably will never be all stars

    Dawkins and co have shown to be willing to take risks with high picks and this would certainly be a high risk, high reward kind of deal

  8. I’m all for Alex Sarr and doubt that changes for me soon. Love the idea of his defensive potential paired with Bilal. Add Deni and theoretically that’s some fun defensive potential on the floor together.

    But really I’ll feel good about whoever Dawkins and the front office goes with.

    My uninformed opinion: He is intriguing and the kind of high-ceiling young guy we should be looking to draft.

    I would prefer Sarr at this point, maybe if Bradshaw comes back and looks good he could be the pick but I’m not really sold on him either especially as a big guy who is already spending time out,

    only really 2-3 players I feel safe about being solid picks, I like Sarr, Risacher and (I really hope we dont draft him) Melvin Ajinca out of France.

    I hope the draft picture gets more clear as the season goes on, it’s a deep class but lacks star power.

  11. Bro We Not Taking Him We are Getting Alex Sarr 💯🔥

    yo I’m like the only Serbian wizards fan but I’m a diehard so that would be amazing (I actually a dude once wear a wizards cap in my small ass hometown so maybe the 2nd die hard wiz fan haha)

  13. I would be estatic. Was talking about him the other day on twitter mfs were laughing

    Hmmm of course they want us taking the white Euro kid lol
    They don’t understand that this front office isn’t Ernie or Tommy anymore. These guys will go after high upside risky picks like they did with Bilal.

    If Sarr is there, **there is no way the ex OKC guys are passing him up.**

    7 footer who protects the interior but can play offensively on the wing?

    No brainer
