Fast forward to today and he’s out of the league, having last played for the Wizards in 2020. Napier has career averages of 7.1 points and 2.5 assists per game. That’s a far cry from the player that was drafted in 2014. However, Napier then found work overseas, playing for Zenit Saint Petersburg in Russia.
