Will Barton projected to start at SF for WizardsAugust 04, 2022 | 10:18 AM

Josh Robbins of The Athletic projects Will Barton as Washington's starting small forward. Analysis: "I think Barton has the inside track on becoming Washington's starting small forward because of his offensive creativity and veteran status," Robbins said. The Wizards have three starters locked in right now with Bradley Beal at the two, Kyle Kuzma at the four and Kristaps Porzingis at the five. Monte Morris has the edge over Delon Wright for starting PG duties according to Robbins, while Barton will have to hold off a vastly improved Deni Avdija who was excellent defensively last season. Barton won't be a popular target in fantasy drafts with so much competition on the wings.
