I don't expect him to rebound or guard anybody on this level, his confidence in his scoring better stay up when he's being taken advantage of on the other end time and time again.
Once again the Wizards picked offensive potential over anything that consistently leads to winning basketball.
I disagree. I don't think he's going to be a stopper but I don't think he's going to be Bertans-like i.e. UNPLAYABLE.
I think Kispert was BPA. He's also a top 10 pick in YODA.

People put Kispert into a box as a shooter, but he was the best scorer in college basketball with all kinds of extra tools that no one talks about. He plays with top shelf effort and is always in the right place. Really solid defender actually, underrated athlete.
I never thought he would be there at 15, but it’s a really smart pick. He will do nothing but help the team he’s on. When the wizards go to lineups with Beal-KCP-Kispert-Bertans-Gafford, they will dominate teams.

I think he's worth the 15th pick but... looking at players who can do what he can do, how much better is he really than Weiskamp - who went 41st? Wouldn't it have been smarter to trade down for Weiskamp and get other picks?

Didn't he test as a sneaky good athlete? With his BBIQ, maybe he can be a solid team defender

Kispert will be the steal of the draft. I thought he was just a shooter, boy was I wrong. His offensive game is so developed. He is plug and play from day 1. Ability to attack the hoop, finish with both hands, two dribble pull-ups and more all while staying under control. I want better wing defense, but I'm not passing on Kispert. In fact, I'd trade up for him. When you talk about lineup construction, having him on the floor with Bertans starts to give us major floor spacing. I'm fine with other players, but Kispert would be a homerun. As his game develops and he improves his ball handling, he'll be even tougher to guard. Defensively teams will go at him but his offensive ability outweighs that IMO. The fg% he puts up tells the real story about his offense. This is a guy who shot 6.5 3's a game at 44%, yet his fg% is almost 53%. On two-point fg's he shot a blistering 62.8% from the field. Teams are going to come in with the game plan of running him off the 3-point line, and he is going to destroy them. The Wizards need to trade up for Kispert.
