"The has been plenty of discourse about a possible NBA Expansion Draft coming into fruituion in the near future. With cities like Las Vegas and Seattle deemed as two realistic locations for an NBA team, commisioner Adam Silver has made is stance on a league expansion over the last few years crystal clear: it's good for the game and business."
"Up to this point in the rebuild, Washington has yet to fully establish cornerstones that they can build around. Sure, players like Alex Sarr and Kyshawn George have emerged as likely candidates to be those pieces, but still the Wizards find themselves in the position to potentially add yet another high-upside prospect this offseason who could shake up the team's future plans depending on their development."
NBA owners are considering expanding the league by two teams, with Las Vegas and Seattle the frontrunners and commissioner Adam Silver supportive for competitive and business reasons. The Board of Governors is likely to vote this summer on the plan. An expansion draft would let new franchises select unprotected players from existing teams, and current teams can protect only eight players. The Washington Wizards face a difficult protection decision because they lack firmly established cornerstones and possess multiple young, high-upside prospects. Recent trades adding Trae Young and Anthony Davis complicate which players to protect among Alex Sarr, Kyshawn George, Young and Davis.
