Experts are very high on Dybantsa, touting him as a three-level scorer and a franchise-altering rookie. He could be the guy to carry the Wizards out of the cellar. He is not lacking in self-confidence, and he is already embracing the pressure of potentially being the go-to guy in Washington.
On Wednesday, the 19-year-old forward posted a well-crafted message on LinkedIn, which should only fire up the nation's capital.
"The Wizards called my name. All those years of work. All those days of anticipation. It happened just like God planned," said Dybantsa.
He added that "everything was a blur" after his name was called at Barclays Center in New York, where he later saw a billboard of himself, which was as "big as anything."
Now that his memorable evening is over, Dybantsa is ready to roll up his sleeves and put in the work, acknowledging that he needs to prove himself again in Washington.
