Shabazz Napier

PG, Washington Wizards

Shabazz Napier made his debut for the Wizards on Friday and was able to make an impact in 18 minutes off the bench with 14 points on 5-of-10 shooting, adding three rebounds, three assists, four 3s, two steals and one block.

Ish Smith was anointed as the new starting PG with Isaiah Thomas no longer in town and he had a similarly productive run in 30 minutes with 14 points (6-of-11 shooting), six rebounds, six dimes, two threes, one steal and one block. Both guards should eventually carve out a timeshare gig and still be worth an end-of-bench slot in 12-teamers moving forward.
