Below is a ranking of every lottery team based on how well Wembanyama would fit with the franchise, from worst to first:
### Some Teams’ Poor Fit for Wembanyama
The Dallas Mavericks rank the lowest on the list as the ongoing drama within the organization may hinder Wembanyama’s early development. The Washington Wizards lack a history of developing young talent, and with a recent change in management, it is uncertain if they’re the best fit for Wembanyama. As long as the Portland Trail Blazers remain in win-now mode, they may not be the best team for the young prospect to develop. Lastly, the Oklahoma City Thunder invested high draft capital in a player similar to Wembanyama and may want to give him more time on the court before committing to another high pick.
### Great Fits: San Antonio Spurs and Orlando Magic
On the other hand, the San Antonio Spurs and Orlando Magic are the best fits for Wembanyama. The Spurs have a proven track record in developing young talent and an established history of maximizing players’ potentials. Playing under one of the best coaches in NBA history, Gregg Popovich, could prove instrumental in shaping Wembanyama’s career. The Orlando Magic is also an excellent destination for the French phenom as the team boasts a young and promising roster. With Paolo Banchero and Wembanyama both on their frontcourt, the team could quickly rise in Eastern Conference ranks.
### Conclusion
While the draft remains uncertain, Wembanyama’s potential could make him the most hyped draft prospect in recent years. Different teams have varying levels of expertise in developing young talent and winning games, making their fit with the young prospect more or less suitable. If the team’s management can fit Wembanyama’s style of play, his addition can provide an enormous, immediate boost both on and off the court.
