Washington Wizards Need to Invest in the Future by Investing in Player Development

As every Washington Wizards fan is well aware, player development has not been an area of strength in recent years.

The likes of Jan Vesely, Chris Singleton, Oleksiy Pecherov, JaVale Mcgee and Nick Young come to mind, among others, and although player scouting is probably just as much to blame in those cases, it’s important to focus on the various ways the organization can improve, outside of signing Kevin Durant.

Although the NBA is the premier professional basketball league in the world, it sometimes feels like player development services aren’t as abundant as in college and summer programs.
