4) Washington Wizards, John Wall and Bradley Beal
My homerism is so rampant and pervasive that I probably would have taken these guys a spot or two higher.
Out of all the backcourts on this list, who would you rather have over the next five years? Probably the Splash Brothers, sure. That’s it.
Wall and Beal are overflowing with talent, heart, guts and swag, and if Beal can follow up on his superb playoff performances, they’re right up there with Steph and Klay.
Wall’s already there, the best all-around point guard in professional basketball. They’ve also gotten… kind of edgy over the past year. A little mean. Maybe it’s the Paul Pierce effect.
One thing’s for sure though: John Wall and Bradley Beal are not the guys you want to go to war against. (Also they’re extremely good at basketball.)
