Episode Details

Locked On Wizards confront the “Wizards tax” as Anthony Davis is the only Washington Wizard in the Locked On NBA Top 100, landing at just 43rd—while Trae Young plummets from 26th to unranked after arriving in D.C. Are young talents like Alex Sarr, Kyshawn George, and AJ Dybantsa being unfairly overlooked due to reputation and recent struggles? Ben Strober and Abdullah Ayubi break down the jaw-dropping omissions and head-scratching rankings, questioning how injuries, market perception, and Washington’s tanking season skew voters’ perspectives. They analyze surprising inclusions like Zach Edey and CJ McCollum, debate the logic behind projecting future stars, and ask if fan-favorite prospects will finally get respect in next year’s rankings. Can the Wizards’ core shake the stigma and force their way onto the NBA’s radar?
