12. Washington Wizards

Starting Five: John Wall, Bradley Beal, Otto Porter, Nene, Marcin Gortat 

Starting Five Rating: 18

If it weren’t for a John Wall injury in the playoffs, I really believe that the Washington Wizards would’ve made the Eastern Conference Finals, and they would’ve undoubtably put up a better fight against the Cleveland Cavaliers than the Atlanta Hawks did.

Nevertheless, even though the Wizards had a solid showing last season, they still have holes along their frontline. They can no longer rely on Nene being a full time starter, and I’m not sure how much faith they actually have in Kris Humphries in filling that role.

Markieff Morris would be a nice fit on this team, though, I’m not sure they have the assets to get a deal done.
