Washington Wizards 1990-91 Roster and Statistics

Last Updated on September 13, 2026 by Mat Diekhake

League Search Page > NBA > Washington Wizards > Roster & Statistics

The 1990–91 Washington Wizards were led by Bernard King, whose scoring made him the focal point of the offense, while Pervis Ellison anchored the frontcourt with rebounding and interior defense. John Williams contributed as a versatile all-around playmaker, and Darrell Walker directed the backcourt. Washington relied on balanced veteran production, combining strong inside play with capable ball movement, but lacked consistent offensive efficiency across the roster.

HeatingUp Impact Index: Team Impact Spotlight

Player Name	Role Tier	MPG	Usage Tier	PPG	RPG	APG	STK (SPG + BPG)	Impact Index	Notes	Awards
Bernard King	Primary Scoring Superstar (1.1)	37.5	High (1.2)	28.4	5.0	4.6	1.2	103.49	As Washington’s offensive centerpiece, King carried an enormous scoring burden and routinely became the answer when possessions broke down. The Los Angeles Times described him as the league’s leading scorer during the season, while his 52-point performance against Denver showed that the post-knee-injury version of King could still overwhelm a defense through relentless shot-making and slashing. (Los Angeles Times)	NBA All-Star (1991); All-NBA Third Team (1991); MVP voting, 16th (1991)
Harvey Grant	Starting Two-Way Forward (1.05)	36.9	High (1.2)	18.2	7.2	2.6	2.0	74.59	Grant developed into King’s essential frontcourt complement, giving Washington a second player opponents could no longer ignore. A January Los Angeles Times report specifically described the emerging King-Grant combination as a new one-two punch after teams had previously been able to concentrate almost exclusively on King. Grant’s scoring growth made the Bullets considerably harder to load up against. (Los Angeles Times)	—
John Williams	Point-Forward Facilitator (1.05)	28.5	Medium (1.1)	12.5	5.4	4.0	1.4	53.82	Williams was Washington’s most unusual offensive connector, capable of initiating offense from the forward spot and finding cutters rather than simply finishing possessions himself. His return from a prolonged knee absence was closely watched, and in April he produced a 22-point, 10-rebound, 12-assist triple-double while helping the Bullets generate some of their best offensive balance of the season. (The Washington Post)	—
Darrell Walker	Rebounding Point Guard (1.05)	32.5	Medium (1.1)	7.8	7.0	6.5	1.6	52.90	Walker was a physical lead guard who supplied far more rebounding than Washington normally expected from its point position. A preseason report from the Los Angeles Times had Walker stressing that the young roster would have to mature quickly, while his 7.0 rebounds and 6.5 assists in the supplied season data show how much of the team’s organization and transition play ran through him. (Los Angeles Times)	—
Pervis Ellison	Interior Defensive Anchor (1.05)	25.6	Medium (1.1)	10.4	7.7	1.3	2.7	51.05	Ellison gave the rebuilding Bullets a genuine defensive interior presence and was particularly valuable as a shot blocker behind an inexperienced perimeter group. The Associated Press’ Los Angeles Times coverage of his acquisition identified him as the centerpiece Washington received for Jeff Malone, and early-season reporting showed his defensive value immediately, including two blocks on Derrick Coleman in a close win over New Jersey. (Los Angeles Times)	—
Ledell Eackles	Slashing Wing Scorer (1.05)	24.1	Medium (1.1)	13.0	1.9	2.0	0.8	40.89	Eackles supplied secondary scoring from the wing and became increasingly useful once his contract holdout ended and he returned to the rotation. Washington had projected him as a replacement for Jeff Malone’s perimeter production, and his return was important enough that the Los Angeles Times identified his absence, alongside Williams’, as one of the major early obstacles in the rebuilding season. (Los Angeles Times)	—
Haywoode Workman	Starting Table-Setter (1.05)	27.9	Medium (1.1)	8.0	3.3	4.8	1.3	40.19	Workman was the steady organizing guard Washington needed while its backcourt remained unsettled. Contemporary reporting described him as the team’s only pure point guard and emphasized that he had run the offense smoothly despite having few spectacular individual traits. That understated role fits the season: he created structure, defended, and allowed the higher-volume scorers to work.	—
A.J. English	Reserve Shot-Creation Guard (1.0)	20.6	Medium (1.1)	8.8	2.1	2.5	0.6	30.80	English was a young scoring guard learning how to translate his prolific college offense to the NBA. His preseason matchup with Bo Kimble attracted attention because both had been major college scorers, but the Los Angeles Times noted that neither shot well that night. English’s eventual role was more measured: secondary creation and scoring bursts rather than primary offensive responsibility.	—
Charles Jones	Rim-Protection Specialist (1.05)	24.2	Low (1.0)	2.6	5.8	0.8	2.8	25.20	Jones was the defensive specialist whose contribution was largely disconnected from offensive volume. Washington needed his size and shot-blocking behind its developing perimeter players, and his role was particularly useful because the rebuilding Bullets lacked another veteran center capable of anchoring the paint for long stretches.	—
Larry Robinson	Emergency Backcourt Defender (1.0)	21.3	Low (1.0)	6.9	2.3	2.0	0.6	23.60	Robinson was primarily a short-term backcourt option rather than a featured creator. His season came amid Washington’s constant attempts to stabilize a young guard rotation, and contemporary preseason coverage placed him among the players competing for a roster role while the team searched for reliable point-guard depth.	—
Mark Alarie	Veteran Frontcourt Reserve (1.0)	14.0	Low (1.0)	5.8	2.8	1.1	0.6	20.60	Alarie served as a veteran frontcourt reserve in a season when Washington was increasingly shifting its attention toward younger pieces. His value came from positional versatility and experience rather than a large offensive workload, and his eventual knee problems made it increasingly difficult for him to regain the larger role he had held earlier in his Bullets tenure.	—
Tom Hammonds	Interior Scoring Reserve (1.0)	14.6	Low (1.0)	5.2	2.9	0.6	0.3	18.00	Hammonds remained a low-post scoring option whose minutes were squeezed by Washington’s frontcourt mix. He had entered the organization with expectations of adding strength underneath, and contemporary coverage around his arrival emphasized his size and low-post potential. By this season, however, he was functioning more as situational interior offense than a featured piece.	—
Greg Foster	Developing Interior Reserve (1.0)	11.2	Low (1.0)	4.4	2.8	0.7	0.6	17.00	Foster was still a developmental big learning how to survive NBA frontcourt matchups. His opportunity was limited behind Washington’s veteran interior options, although he showed flashes of usefulness as a rebounder and shot blocker. The Los Angeles Times’ preseason coverage noted his place among the young players in a roster explicitly undergoing a rebuilding process.	—
Byron Irvin	Deep Rotation Wing (1.0)	9.6	Low (1.0)	5.2	1.4	0.7	0.6	15.80	Irvin was a depth wing used when Washington needed another body on the perimeter rather than a player with a defined offensive workload. His limited minutes reflected a crowded young rotation in which King, Grant, Eackles and the guards absorbed most of the meaningful creation responsibilities.	—
Clinton Smith	End-of-Rotation Guard (1.0)	9.0	Low (1.0)	1.4	0.8	0.8	0.2	6.40	Smith occupied a fringe backcourt role during a season in which Washington was prioritizing younger guards and experimenting with its rotation. With only five appearances in the supplied data, there is limited independent season-specific reporting from which to draw a deeper assessment of his on-court responsibilities.	—
Washington Bullets Totals	Team Aggregate	242.1	—	143.9	61.2	34.2	16.9	574.33	Aggregate of the supplied player averages and calculated Impact Index values.
