"The Washington Wizards proved to be active on the trade market this offseason and after yet another slow start to the year, all eyes are on the Wizards as the NBA trade deadline approaches. Washingtons struggles have been hard to ignore to start the year and despite the emergence of both Alex Sarr and Kyshawn George, the team could be active reshaping their roster once again prior to February's deadline."
"Obviously, the likes of veterans like CJ McCollum and Khris Middleton come to mind when thinking about potential trade candidates for the Wizards, but considering their lucrative contracts, there's no guarentee that Washington will be able to find a suitor for either veteran. In fact, it's almost more likely that the Wizards will be forced to negotiate a contract buyout if they choose to move on from either veteran, if not both."
The Washington Wizards began the season slowly despite offseason activity and could reshape their roster before the February trade deadline. Young players Alex Sarr and Kyshawn George have emerged, but the team still faces roster challenges. High-salary veterans C.J. McCollum and Khris Middleton could be difficult to move via trade and might require contract buyouts. Corey Kispert's recent strong starts have improved his appeal as a sharpshooter, potentially increasing trade interest. Marvin Bagley III has provided bench production, averaging 7.6 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.4 assists, and could attract teams with frontcourt needs.
