As a senior, Kispert scored 18.6 points per game. “That little two or so minutes from the time my name got called when I shook Commissioner Silver’s hand, is a highlight of my life,” Kispert said of being drafted. “I feel still like my heart rate’s dropping. Numb from head to toe. I loved every minute of it.” Kispert was an All-American as a senior and led the Bulldogs to an undefeated regular season and the national championship game before losing to Baylor. “He helped lead them to the national championship game. He just had a stellar collegiate career, he’s very mature,” Wizards general manager Tommy Sheppard said. “The way that we see the future of the NBA, I’ve mentioned this several times, I think you’re going to see more 3s than less, and he’s somebody that really makes us comfortable that we can reach our goal of increasing our 3-point shooting.”
