The Washington Wizards are going to have a high pick in the 2026 NBA Draft this June. Hopefully, that\u2019s the No. 1 pick. But either way, Wizards fans won\u2019t wait very long to see their team on the board. So, if you see the results from this week\u2019s SB Nation NBA Reacts survey, you may be surprised by the title. There\u2019s a catch, of course.<\/p>\n
A significant majority (72 percent) of NBA fans who voted in the national survey believe that IF A TEAM HAS A NON-LOTTERY PICK, it is better spent on a four-year college player than a \u201cone-and-done.\u201d Typically, the top one-and-done players tend to be selected in the lottery.<\/p>\n
There was another question asked where fans voted on which player will be the most exciting in the NBA. AJ Dybantsa of Brigham Young was the top pick at 38 percent, while Cameron Boozer of Duke was second at 32 percent.<\/p>\n
So no, I don\u2019t think the Wizards will select a four-year college player with their top pick. But they have a second round pick, which is likely be between No. 31 and No. 36 or so, perhaps the Wizards should pick a player who completed his NCAA eligibility as opposed to another one-and-done.<\/p>\n
