The Washington Wizards should strongly consider drafting sharp-shooter Aaron Nesmith out of Vanderbilt with the ninth overall pick in the 2020 NBA Draft.

The 2020 NBA Draft has been pushed back yet again to November 18. The Washington Wizards have now been afforded even more time to evaluate prospects “virtually” due to COVID-19. Washington is hoping to replicate the success they had last season after selecting Rui Hachimura out of Gonzaga in the 2019 NBA Draft. In his rookie season, Hachimura made All-Rookie second team and finished first in rebounds per game and fifth in points per game among all rookies who played in at least 25 games.
