With the team mostly likely to lock-up Gilbert Arenas and Antwan Jamison to long-term contracts the Wizards are going to have to build through the draft for years to come. They have to make smart pick here and a player like Jordan could be a steal--or an enormous bust.

 

19. ClevelandCavaliers – Roy Hibbert, Center, Georgetown

Hibbert has yet to reach his full potential but I feel like he could be finally coming around. Zydrunas Ilguaskas isn’t going to be around forever, and if Hibbert is really a late bloomer he could become Big Z’s replacement.

 

20. Charlotte Bobcats – Robin Lopez, Center, Stanford

Lopez can have an immediate impact on the defensive end for the Bobcats next season, but only if Larry Brown will actually play him. We all know that Brown hates rookies, but I don’t think he’ll let Lopez rot away on the bench when he could be in the game blocking shots and grabbing rebounds.

 

21. New Jersey Nets – Chris Douglas-Roberts, Guard, Memphis

CDR was the best player on a team that only lost two games all season. Yet somehow he’s going in the 20’s and Rose is the top pick, go figure.

 

22. Orlando Magic – Courtney Lee, Guard, Western Kentucky

The Magic refuse to trade J.J. Redick, but I think they’re just going to bury him deeper on the bench with this pick.

 

23. Utah Jazz – Ryan Anderson, Forward, California

Anderson has been underrated during the entire draft process, but I think he’ll fit in nicely in Utah.

 

24. SeattleSupersonics – JaVale McGee, Center, Nevada

McGee was one of the 15 prospects invited to Orlando as a physical only player during the Pre-Draft Camp. This led a lot of people to believe that he’d be picked much higher. But after a lackluster performance in individual workouts his stock has dropped. The Sonics will be glad to scoop him up here.
