5. Washington Wizards – Brandon Miller, F, Alabama

This season has not gone as the Washington Wizards expected it to go with Bradley Beal, Kristaps Porzingis, and Kyle Kuzma on the roster. Assuming that they don’t make a huge move at the NBA Trade Deadline to bring in another star, this team will have their work cut out for them in the offseason.

And with the growing chance that Kuzma could end up signing elsewhere in free agency during the summer, it would be wise for Washington to try and target another dynamic wing in this year’s NBA Draft.

One prospect that would fit would be Brandon Miller, a sharpshooting freshman out of Alabama. During his freshman season thus far, Miller has been impressive on the offensive end. He’s averaging 19 points and nine rebounds per game on 41 percent shooting from the field and 44 percent shooting from 3-point range.
