The Washington Wizards have hosted a number of pre-draft work outs this month, but they haven’t featured many first round projected prospects.

On Monday, though, they’ll have the chance to get a first-hand look at Arkansas forward, Bobby Portis, who many think could end up donning a Wizards uniform this upcoming NBA season.

Washington will look to add a stretch four this off-season after having success playing a modern brand of basketball during the NBA Playoffs. While Paul Pierce was a solid option, the future Hall-of-Famer might not be back, and quite frankly, he’s not a long-term solution to Washington’s need.

Portis, 6’11”, is one of the most versatile players in this month’s draft.

In his second season with the Razorbacks, Portis averaged 17.5 points and nearly 9 rebounds per game. Even more impressively, he made nearly 47 percent of his three point attempts.

Given Washington’s need for a big man that can space the floor, Bobby Portis would be able to contribute in his first season.

As some have pointed out already, Bobby Portis’ skill-set is similar to that of former Wizard Andray Blatche. He’s capable of creating for himself in the post and facing up, but with John Wall on the floor, he could be a solid pick-and-pop option for Randy Wittman‘s team.

Portis will be working out with LSU’s Jarrell Martin, who’s also considered a first round pick, as CSN Washington’s Ben Standig noted. Martin averaged similar numbers — nearly 17 points and just over 9 rebounds per game.

Nowadays, every team needs a big man who can space the floor. Washington excelled last year when Wall and Bradley Beal had the chance to penetrate and create baskets for their teammates. If Bobby Portis continues to develop, he might be able to eventually become a starter at the next level.

Right now, many NBA mock drafts have Bobby Portis going anywhere from the late-lottery to late in the first round. If he performs well in his pre-draft work outs, Portis might end up moving up on many teams’ draft boards.

The draft is just weeks away and the Wizards have to narrow their selections down soon. If Bobby Portis is available, he might be their guy.
