Draft picks

Main article: 2021 NBA draft

Round	Pick	Player	Position	Nationality	College
1	15	Corey Kispert	SF	United States	Gonzaga

Entering the draft, the Wizards only had pick #15 as their natural selection, which they used to draft Corey Kispert.^[4] However, before the draft, the Wizards pulled off a blockbuster trade that sent Russell Westbrook and two future second-round picks to the Los Angeles Lakers for multiple players and the rights to the Lakers' 2021 first-round pick (which became Isaiah Jackson) at #22.^[5] Later that night, the Wizards traded the draft rights to Jackson to the Indiana Pacers for Aaron Holiday and the rights to pick #31 (Isaiah Todd).^[5]
