Cameron Boozer Emerges as a Wizards Wild Card at No. 1 Pick
The Athletic's Zach Harper floated a draft-night curveball: the Wizards taking Duke forward Cameron Boozer at No. 1 over AJ Dybantsa and Darryn Peterson. Harper noted that a D.C. radio appearance framed the debate as Dybantsa versus Boozer rather than Dybantsa versus Peterson, making him wonder if a surprise could be brewing. The reigning national player of the year averaged 22.5 points, 10.2 rebounds, and 4.1 assists at Duke as a polished stretch forward. Harper's logic is that pairing Boozer with Alexandre Sarr and Anthony Davis could help mask some defensive limitations. The catch for fantasy managers is that same frontcourt: Sarr and Davis would compete with Boozer for early minutes and rebounds. Davis' long injury history leaves a real opening, and Boozer's talent makes him a long-term fantasy cornerstone wherever he lands.
