Jordan Poole tax
Who gets moved first, him or Poole?
That’s Austin Reaves money
Deni x Poole Party for four more years
Good value
He remembered Israel needs tanks
Who???
Well at least now he doesn’t have to complain about touches for his contract.
Good contract for a guy who will never be a star. Thankfully his agent didn’t try to ask for too much
Another average player securing generational wealth. Old heads must be punching the wall seeing these contracts
He now has 55 million reasons to be okay when Poole or Kuzma chuck shots and don’t pass it to him
I didn’t see this coming
This team, man… Don’t let Wizards fans gaslight you into thinking he’s good. The guy is below average on both ends. Certainly on the offensive end.
Great value, happy that Avdija has broken the streak of wizard rookies not making it to their second contract (last guy was otto Porter lol)
Getting paid $55M to watch the Poole x Kuzma globetrotters is tuff 😤
Steal
Wait I thought he was almost out of the league and should be happy that Poole doesnt pass to him
Great contract. I don’t think he’ll turn out to be a star but I really liked him on the defensive end from the few Wizards games I’ve watched – remember some fans calling him Denitentiary, lol.
Oh, hi Deni
He is trash. Why would they do this? I dont even think he is an NBA player
That’s Austin Reaves $$$!
Well deserved. Great kid with a lot of talent and willing to win rather than his teammates who mostly care about stats.
Hope that his 3 pointer will come around
Woah. I’m really interested in Avdija. He’s player I feel a certain fascination about precisely because he seems to have so many tools that haven’t come together.
That could end up being a bad contract. The player he’s been this far is not worth that.
Patrick Williams shouldn’t get more than this. 20 a year at most imo.
This would be a great contract if Deni was good.

It’s also the highest amount of money and contract a single Israeli athlete ever received – including all different sports.
If Advija’s getting this amount, how much Josh Green is getting ? Am worried a little bit.
*sigh* no bed tonight
Bro got paid 55 mil to sit in the corner and get iced out
Sometimes you just immediately know a player isn’t going to finish out their contract with the team they signed with. This is one of those times.
Wizards new GM trying to the last GM, hold my beer
Jesus, that’s an overpay
Israeli Ben Simmons got a *bag* to look tall and miss FTs

I’m down on deni more than most. Would not have done it
I guess they saw him pouting
This seems like a great deal for the wiz. I would love him on my team with that contract
