June 25 is quickly approaching and the Washington Wizards have some major decisions to make. This year’s draft provides them with a number of players who could fit really well into Head Coach Randy Wittman’s offense. With rampant speculation of Kevin Durant possibly coming to D.C. next summer, Wittman, his coaches and the front office must carefully use the nineteenth overall pick.

Here are the four players I think the Wizards cannot go wrong with by drafting them with their first round pick.

Jerian Grant

Grant is a six-foot-five combo guard with good range, solid handle and tons of athleticism. Grant was a four year player for Mike Brey at Notre Dame, and also attended DeMatha Catholic High School in Hyattsville, Maryland. As seen in the most recent NCAA Tournament, Grant has a knack for making big plays and won’t shy away from big moments. He is a solid playmaker who can add depth to the Wizards backcourt. A number of teams really like Grant because of his versatility at both guard spots, which may make it tough for the Wizards to get him at 19. But, if he is still available, I think Washington should take him.

Tyus Jones

If Grant isn’t available at 19, Jones definitely will. While he is only six-foot-one, Jones has all of the skills required to be a solid point guard in the NBA. Jones played with a number of future NBA players at Duke, and helped lead that team to a championship. He has a great handle and feel for the ball and can also shoot it from deep. The Final Four MVP is also really good in pick and roll situations, which is the basis for most offenses in the NBA, including the Wizards’. I think Jones would be a good pass-first, set-up guy off the bench to relieve John Wall. Without Wall on the floor, the Wizards offense often looked static and Jones could help bring some fluidity to the second unit.

Trey Lyles

Lyles is the best big the Wizards will have a chance to draft. He is solidly built at six-foot-ten, 235 pounds and will match up well with just about any power forward in the league. He is not overly athletic, but his length makes up for it and he runs the floor well for a guy his size. He is also solid in the post and has good footwork, which is an essential component of a good big man in the NBA. Lyles fits well into the Wizards rotation because he is solid on both ends of the floor. Nene will not play for much longer and Gortat is 31 years old. He is a good passer and has a high basketball IQ.

Bobby Portis

The 2015 SEC Player of the Year is also a very versatile forward that would fit a similar role to Trey Lyles if he were drafted by the Wizards. Portis’ motor may run a bit faster than Lyles, and he has the potential to be a real threat on both ends of the floor. He runs hard in transition and is a good rebounder who can start the break with solid outlet passes. The former Arkansas Razorback also has a solid mid-range face-up game, but needs to improve with his back to the basket. Portis could add a lot of depth off the bench for the Wizards’ frontcourt.
