Washington (#16) - Wizards select Rodney Stuckey

[Glenn]

Wizards Team Needs

Picks: 16,47

Needs: SG,C

Analysis: With Deshawn Stevenson set to hit the open market, the Wizards could use a 2G that can come in and give them something right away. Derrick Byars may not be the sexiest pick as his slow feet limit his overall potential, but he's ready now and should be an excellent role player for years to come. Other possibilities include Javaris Crittenton and Nick Young.

They are rumored to be shopping Daniels, Haywood and Thomas. And Jamison has been mentioned in Marion rumors, too.

Sounds like big changes are coming to the Wiz.

Man, I really hope the Wiz take Stuckey now, lol.

I have a hunch that we will. I think Joe sees him as his Vinny Johnson. Unless a guy like Hawes or Law falls to us I think Stuckey will be the pick. I'm not a big fan of him, but I see it happening.

Oz, DC: Any idea on what direction the Wizards will go at #16? I'm hoping for a two guard to relieve some of the pressure off of Arenas. Any chance one of the Young's is there?

John Hollinger: (2:10 PM ET ) I think that'd be a great pickup for Washington at that spot, either one of the Youngs or Stuckey.... though they could also use another body in the frontcourt and a backup point guard, so it's not like they should get too hung up on that one position.
