More from Washington Wizards

In this year’s draft, the Washington Wizards will select with the 19th overall pick. There is certainly no hype picking 19th like there is for the teams who are in the lottery and have a chance to get a young star in hopes to change their franchise.

In draft history though, there have been players that were taken with this pick and became very good players, including one who has been an NBA All-Star.

The 2015 draft is deeper than we are used to in recent history, so the Wizards have a great chance to pick up a player to help them be one of the top teams in the league. They are a young team who has grown tremendously throughout the past two seasons as they made the playoffs, but they are missing one more piece to help them be a complete team.

Here are the top 5 No. 19 overall picks in NBA Draft history.
