Tounde Yessoufou began the season a bit slow, but has quietly turned it around despite Baylor’s collective struggles. There’s a lot to like here. He’s a clear-cut NBA athlete, built like a tank and explosive as a leaper. Yessoufou also plays extremely hard, with all the intangibles a young, rebuilding team like Washington should covet. The work ethic is well-documented, and that should increase faith in Yessoufou’s ability to address weaknesses and maximize his NBA outcome.
Washington has done an excellent job of stockpiling length and athleticism; Kingston Flemings, in this hypothetical, gives them a franchise point guard waiting in the wings behind Trae Young. Yessoufou can come in and play into his strengths in a complementary role. He’s slowly developing his handle to a more workable level, while the 3-point shooting has come around, too. He’s a bursty, hard-nosed driver. He cleans up on backdoor cuts, lobs, offensive boards and the like. The decision-making is hit or miss, but Yessoufou generally understands his role on the court. This is a tremendous upside play with the final pick in the first round.
