2019-20 Wizards player evaluations: Moritz Wagner remains a mystery after his first season in D.C.

Moritz Wagner is (still) a big conundrum after completing his second NBA season. And I don’t mean the famous Moritz Wagner, the renowned German explorer. but the Wizards player.

As so many other players (Troy Brown, Issac Bonga, Johnathan Williams, Jemerrio Jones) that suited up for the Wizards these last couple years, he was once a Laker. But as they say since Rob Pelinka and Magic Johnson took over in L.A., ``Once a Laker, always a Wizard.”

Moritz is fondly known as Moe from his Michigan years. There were high expectations for Moe based on NCAA Finals run with Michigan, and a late first round pick seemed appropriate at the time.
