The Wall contract is the worst in the NBA IMO. It's quite possible the Wizards got better today with Wall being ruled out for the rest of the season. The guy gives zero fucks on the court right now and is in desperate need of a change of scenery.

I was never high on Young. The defensive flaws were obvious to me just due to his slight frame. Doncic has been great. One thing I don't have a feel for is his ceiling. The old man in me rejects the next Lebron James labels that I have seen recently. I do give credit for the attempt of a comparison that cross racial lines though
