NBA Draft 2024: The Wizards have quietly held workouts with numerous prospects, including Alex Sarr, Matas Buzelis and Cameron Christie

The 2024 NBA Draft isn’t until June 26. Teams are holding draft workouts. Over the past 10 years that I have been a contributor, editor and eventually site manager here, the Washington Wizards have generally been open about which players were coming in for workouts, a day before they arrived. These came in the form of regular press releases.

I haven’t seen these kinds of announcements over the last couple seasons since Will Dawkins became the new General Manager. That doesn’t meant that he and head coach Brian Keefe are just watching TikTok dances all day long, relaxing at the MedStar Health Performance Center and then walking across the hall to catch Mystics games at the Entertainment and Sports Arena.

Again, the Wizards are holding draft prospect workouts. It’s just that the Wizards never publicized these kinds of things in the Dawkins (and Monumental Basketball President Michael Winger) Era.

Our own Greg Finberg posted on X yesterday many of the prospects who worked out with the Wizards. He even added another couple later.

So, the biggest fish on this list is none other than former Perth Wildcats center Alex Sarr. It makes sense that the Wizards would hold a workout with him since they have the No. 2 pick, and it looks increasingly likely that he’s their man. But sometimes, Wizards fans who are also picking up friends or loved ones at Dulles Airport in Loudoun County can get a celebrity sighting along the way. This happened last Tuesday, when I was wrapping up end-of-school year things at my day job.

In addition to Sarr and Greg’s summary X post, there are two more prospects whom the Wizards worked out.

Yesterday, forward Matas Buzelis, a former five-star prospect from Chicago worked out with the Wizards at Capital One Arena per his Instagram stories. Our own Greg Finberg has the image below.

Since the Wizards have a late first round pick at No. 26, it’s possible that Christie could be selected here, though mock drafts also have him drafted early in the second round.
