How many of the last players to reach the half-century mark in points for every NBA franchise can you name in five minutes?
The all-time list of NBA All-Stars is obviously long, and notably distinguished. However, there are some players — for various reasons — who the casual, or even most-dedicated, NBA fans can't recall having earned All-Star nods.
The Washington Wizards' most intriguing player, Bilal Coulibaly, is sitting out the entirety of preseason due to an injury he suffered playing for Team France.
The exercise of running a re-draft of the 2024 NBA Draft piqued my curiosity: where would Bilal Coulibaly land in a re-draft of 2023? And, just scanning down the list of drafted players…it won’t be 7th.

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any worse for the Washington Wizards, the basketball gods decided to throw another curveball. Or, in this case, a busted thumb.
Bilal Coulibaly might be the most interesting player on this Washington Wizards squad. He has uber potential in his game, and it is evident from the performances he has had in the past.
With French wing Bilal Coulibaly sustained a significant thumb injury at EuroBasket 2025, the Washington Wizards have been put in a tough position. Heading into a crucial make-or-break season, the Wizards won’t get their next glimpse of the defensive star until after the start of 2025-26.
Though the Washington Wizards want to build a defensive foundation, they’ll likely have to begin the upcoming season without arguably their best player on that end.
Washington Wizards guard Bilal Coulibaly is expected to miss some time at the start of the regular season following thumb surgery, ESPN reported Friday.

WASHINGTON D.C. — Bilal Coulibaly entered EuroBasket with expectations. France needed him to step forward. He never did. The forward averaged 6.3 points and 4.3 rebounds across six games.
Alongside established stars like Luka Doncic and Nikola Jokic, the tournament also has a handful of lesser-known players on the radar. They may not dominate headlines yet, but their performances overseas show they’re ready to push for a bigger role in the NBA.

Before a season-ending hamstring injury earlier last month, Bilal Coulibaly was on the rise with the rebuilding Washington Wizards. He still is, but now he’ll have to wait until next season.

The Washington Wizards could be without promising forward Bilal Coulibaly for the rest of the regular season. Coulibaly suffered a hamstring injury during the first quarter of the Wizards' Monday contest against the Toronto Raptors at Scotiabank Arena.
