Winger isn’t promising a quick fix and isn’t yet ready to discuss the looming decisions on free agents Kristaps Porzingis and Kyle Kuzma.

Winger assumes the Wizards’ top job with less than a month before the NBA draft on June 22, where the Wizards hold the eighth, 42nd and 57th picks.

In the brief moment before the final ball was selected, Washington’s shot at getting the top selection had skyrocketed from 6.7 percent to 54.5 percent.

Washington has the eighth-best odds to win the lottery, or a 6.7 percent chance.

The Wizards need look no further than New York, where the Knicks' Scott Perry built a roster in the middle of a playoff run, to find their next general manager.

Assistant coaches Alex McLean and Dean Oliver will not return to the Wizards next season.
