On July 11, according to ESPN's famous reporter Shams, the second-place winner in 2018 was sent to the Grizzlies by the Wizards on the trading deadline this year. Now Bagley returns to the Wizards with a one-year contract. As for the same-class No. 1 pick Ayton, he joined the Lakers for 2 years and $16.6 million after being bought out by the Trail Blazers. Compared with the same-class No. 4 pick, Doncic, and Jaren Jackson, the situation is very different.

As the second-tier pick in 2018, Bagley has played for four teams, namely the Kings, the Pistons, the Wizards and the Grizzlies in his career. After Bagley played for the Wizards 19 games last season, he was traded by the Wizards to play for 12 games at the trade deadline.

Bagley averaged only 4.4 points, 2.7 rebounds and 0.4 assists last season, creating the worst performance in his career in a single season. Bagley's highest bright season in his career was actually a rookie season. He averaged 14.9 points, 7.6 rebounds and 1 assist per game, which was the peak of his debut.
Bugley's performance continues to decline now, especially when he played the worst season of his career last season, becoming the target of being abandoned back and forth. Now Bagley can only return to the Wizards with a one-year contract.

The top two picks in the 2018 draft are tragic. No. 1 pick Ayton was cut by the Trail Blazers this summer, giving Yang Hansen and Klingen a place. Ayton later joined the Lakers for 2 years of $16.6 million. As for the second-place finisher Bagley has become a marginal player and returns to the Wizards for a one-year contract. In contrast, Tanhua Doncic is the Lakers' current team-building core, with No. 4 pick Jaren Jackson completing a five-year, $248 million renewal.
