How Trade Impacts Washington Wizards
The Washington Wizards have been stuck in the dreaded middle ground for far too long. It is time to accept reality and go into a full rebuild, which they sound ready to do.
With Bradley Beal already on the move this offseason, Porzinigs doesn’t appear to be too far behind and is already linked to Boston in trade rumors.
Malcolm Brogdon would keep the Wizards competitive if they don’t want to go into a full teardown. However, the focus does appear to be to rebuild.
What Washington will be most excited about in this deal is the unprotected 2025 first-round pick. Draft picks are like gold in the NBA as they can help you replenish a roster or be used as sweeteners in trades.

Brogdon is under contract for two more seasons and could be moved in a separate trade to help them add something going forward. He could be dealt before next season even begins.
