I guess this is potentially more valuable than selling those 3 future picks for cash considerations on their draft nights?
So we just gotta pray on the Suns downfall then.
Weird trade. Don’t recall anything like this before. I guess the hope is bank we are a better team than the suns come 2026
A lot of teams have started doing this it seems
I want to hear more details about this. I’m guessing the swap only happens if we want it to, otherwise we could just be handing Phoenix a high draft pick if we struggle in the 2025-26 season for any reason.
This whole thing is weird, feels like Weltman just wanted to get ahead on selling all our second rounders instead of waiting until draft night.
I like it. 3 years is a pretty long time in the NBA. Does anyone expect KD to stay there for the next 3 seasons? Bradley Beal hasn’t exactly been the picture of health. Ayton seems like he has one foot out the door.
Considering we never use our 2nd rounders, this could end up being a pretty smart move. I’m just glad we finally did something with our 2nd round picks instead of just trading them for cash.
Wizard fan lurkin, i think you guys get the second swap on this pick because Washington already owns the swap here Via the Beal trade (we own their swaps 24,26,28,30). Decent chance neither of us use the swap in 26 unless the suns stink/blow it up or one of their core members get badly hurt and it changes their entire trajectory.
I’m sure Bobby marks will probably make a tweet explaining it better than i can lol.
Already praying on their downfall so this is just extra motivation
I can’t remember the last time we made a decent 2nd round draft pick so this is fine by me. I’ll take it over cash considerations any day.
We don’t use any seconds so this is good with me
So basically we get the Suns pick if Washington doesn’t want to swap and it’s a higher pick then ours?
Bol Bol getting cut and still giving us a first round pick swap is insane. Thank you Mr. Bol.
Not going to see anything with this swap, just FO offloading 2nds
How does this make sense? Why would I want to swap with a team that gets the 18th pick for my 5th? And send 3 seconds to do it. LMAO
Solid move. We never use our 2nd round picks or we just waste them on players who never develop.
FAKE TRADE…the Weltman special
