Washington Post noted this morning that LW might be the Wizards choice. Noted, as a negative, was that he comes from a system "with no ball movement." Now, where have I heard THAT before?

No guaranteed $$ for 2nd Rounders.

BB may not go in 1st round. Looks 50-50.

From NBADraftNet: Weaknesses: Lacks defensive intensity, especially off the ball, as he has a habit of floating around the court instead of remaining engaged ... Looks lost at times on offense when the ball isn’t in his hands ... Needs to have the ball in order to be a threat offensively, but...

From everything I've read, seems to me that LW is very highly regarded in NBA circles but -- as a player who will definitely need a couple years to reach his high potential.

I'd still like to know more details on what the allegation against Coach L is. What was his involvement, if anything? I know he and the AD have denied any involvement. But ... that still leaves the burning question of how UM's and Coach L's name somehow magically appeared in the Feds case. It...
