Next up through the statistical doppelgänger machine is Wizards forward Isaac Bonga. The name that popped as closest match made me laugh out loud. It might make Wizards fans cry. But I’ll get to that.
Acquired when then-interim general manager Tommy Sheppard shoehorned the Wizards into the Anthony Davis to the Lakers trade, Bonga got his first real playing time in Washington. He got just 120 minutes as a 19-year old rookie in Los Angeles, and he was awful in the few minutes he received.
Still, he’s tall and possessed of reasonable NBA-level athleticism, as well as enough ball skills to have some scouts imagine he might even play PG.
