DCRISING the record doesn’t do the talent on the team justice just wait until next year
Yall gotta hype this video just another amazing breakdown 😍
Will Riley is a true talent. Absolutely great video and let’s all HYPE this up so more people can see the quality of content. No utube channels put so much time into research and preparation of content keep it up 🫎
Well put Bro!
Great job brother !
I liked Will Riley when he was at Illinois with kasparas and i honestly thought he was a underrated scorer, he has now been scoring amazingly in the nba. Also love the vid man!
I hope the Wizards don't mess this up .. this is very talented player👀🤔🏀
Will Dawkins has been cooking. Ive watched 95% of the games over the course of this tear down and here we are 3 years later and we have Trae and AD waiting in the wings. Dawkins imo has hit on almost every draft pick. We have such a good young core. Cant wait to see Bilal, Kyshawn, Tre, Sarr, Bub, Will, Champagnie, and whoever we get from the draft (hoping we keep our pick) next year. Even if we dont get Cam, Abanstya, Peterson, I am 100% confident Will is going to draft a really good player. Will and Jamir Watkins have been playing phenomenal with the PT. Sharife Cooper has been hooping too. He had a block today on a dunk attempt. I was like wtffffff. I havent been this excted since we draft John Wall.
Outstanding video, brother!
His name is WILLY J BALL
He's legit 6'10".
We beat Detroit. Stop it.
The wizards can absoluetly keep getting away with this: From a Wizards fan
Great breakdown video. As a true Wizards fan since the 90s, I don't think we've ever been in this situation w/out sabotaging ourselves with a bad trade or selecting a bust in the lottery. We're always one player or two away when we do have a good team. We've never been the best at drafting players hence our best draft picks were obvious picks in Wall and Beal. I have to give credit to Will Dawkins and staff for drafting talented players. And Will Riley has a very high ceiling with his height, footwork, and skillset. Us Wizards fan will track his career with Walter Clayton Jr. We drafted Walter but traded him for Will Riley. A lot of fans were upset by the move after Walter's success in college with winning the NCAA Tournament. I think we did the right thing.
And it was confirmed that Will Riley actually grew to 6'10 w/out shoes to start the season.
Well done. I'm going to subscribe. Two things, I would like to add. 1) Physically he is a late bloomer. In his physical development stage, he is basically 19 in a 17 year's old body. He had a massive growth spurt late in life. Will is no-where close to his ceiling as it relates to his physical development and measurements. It will take probably be a few years until he begins to develop grown man strength. Will is 6'10. He will get much stronger. I presume he will get faster, although I don't know if that will ever be a plus+ physical trait for him. Here is the thing, I am not concerned about the speed, because of his late growth spurt, he's offensive game, specifically is crafty like a 6'2 guard, i.e. hesitations, stop and go, snake-like body movements, etc. He moves a lot, like SGA did at 19 years old. Nor am I concerned about his defensive. He is putting in the effort and he "locks-in" as well as can be expected of a 19 yr NBA rookie. He has a high basketball IQ (also very mature for his age), he'll be an above average defender when he grows into his body, which will be in a few years. 2) IMHO, 4-5 years, Will has the potential to be a borderline all-start level at PG. Until then, he's be an above average adaptable role player off the bench. We'll see skill improvement and physical development with each passing season of experience. Of course, it's too early to tell and he'll most likely slide into a secondary playmaker role. I am not suggesting his player comp is SGA. Although, it's noteworthy, Will is actually is a much better shooter than SGA at the same stage. Overall, I think they will be similar players with different physical attributes. The bottom line, as you indicated and why you did this feature on Will Riley, he is showing a lot potential. Anything about his game (right now) that are related to physical attributes, just be patient for a few years. He's 19 years old, in the body of 17 year old. Oh geez, I just got to end and you're talking about Jesus? Seriously? Here is some unsolicited advice: Unless, you're talking about universal truths, that apply to all religions, philosophies, that many sages before and after Jesus have all spoken about, such as fear is an illusion that is preventing you from remembering your true self, which is love. Otherwise, please keep your specific faith to yourself. It is incredibly insulting. How would you feel if you had to spend your life, in room listening to other people who are NOT Christian — telling you how their faith is superior and their God is the one true God? I presume you would feel that experience would be condescending. "As if" these people know better than you. All faiths have core commonalities. Focus on what brings us together. The few quotes in the Bible where Jesus said, paraphrasing "go spread my word" are misinterpreted and convoluted (on purpose by those in power). It is not about any particular religion or about "him". It's about living life with love and compassion, amongst other things.
You released this just before Will Riley went 2-14 lol.
Willy J Ball 💪🏽 my boy is a bucket. Another great video and appreciate the Wizards attention, we never get any love lol
Love it – literally no risk and super high reward
Yay someone making a video of a Wizard not named Sarr!
Really fair assessment. Espec the Danny Wolf game – ouch! But the thing you need to emphasize is right now is Riley is a literal bean pole!
He's like 6-9 and barely 100lbs. Once he puts on some muscle, most of the flaws in his game drop off. Expect him to put on 15-20 lbs in the next few years.
I think Riley will be seen as one of the great late 1st round diamonds in the rough. What a change in this FO's ability to evaluate talent!
BTW, I'd love to see a similar video on Bilal, with emphasis in what he needs to work on offensively. Do you see issues with his shot, etc.
Can we expect a cam thomas video soon 👀
Downhill Will. He was in the top 90% as an iso scorer in college. At 6-10 (yes, he is) with a crazy bag and all the herky jerk shooting moves and clever finishing moves… Will Dawkins (and Amber Nichols, who leads scouting and gets no credit) have found another one.
I'll admit I wasn't super impressed watching him in the Big 10, but he's a 6-10 combo guard and he's legit. His progression throughout the season has been amazing. He was basically unplayable earlier this season, but the team sending him to the GoGo for additional seasoning and development has clearly paid off. Over the past month, he's showing the sort of flashes as a 3 level reserve scorer this team needs.
He absolutely needs to get stronger. I think the frame is there, but he'll need to work on his body a lot.
I was digging the content… then you dropped scripture at the end….
I couldn't hit that Subscribe button fast enough. Love these videos, bruh, have a blessed day.
Carter Bryant video would be cool! Specially since he'll be participating in the Dunk Contest.
immediate like and subscribe after I saw the verse of the day!! 🔥🔥 .
(doing the Lord’s work using your passion as a ministry. God bless you, brother.)
Will Dawkins did so good with drafting that we legit have like 4-5 players that you could consider core players for the future
Wizards don't know how to use players. Its funny because when that player goes to another team that player will be a superstar. For example, Deni Avdija on the Trailblazers.
he aint good
Gonna have to consolidate some of those backcourt/wings at some point
He just needs to put on some muscle and he can be a great role player imo
Please 🙏make more Wizards videos!
Chris Paul man😢
Hope y'all do good in the future, deserve it for all the suffering y'all been through😂
Wasn't he a 1 in college?
great vid bro, he has been super suprising and i think he has major upside. shoutout jamir watkins!!
WILLY J BALL
“Sucking?” Was the first thing that popped in my head after reading the title
