    Why would Washington be preferred? He's a weird dude that Trae Young tbh

    His agents probably shopped around and no one else cares to trade for him.

    But he didn't say China was his preferred destination, I don't get it?

    Hawks finally about to be free from the shackles of the Trae Young experience

    they’re better without him atp

    and no serious player would ever let it be known that the freaking basement dwelling Washington Wizards are at the top of your trade list…Trae is used to losing tho, so there won’t be any culture shock for him

    Trae might prefer to go to a contender, but if contenders aren't knocking on the door he'll prefer to go where he can get paid. Washington will give him the max and the fans will never complain about him being overpaid because he's the most relevant player they've had since Arenas.

    This…. Although they do have a few nice young pieces to grow along side of his continued regression.

    I can see them trading McCollum/Kispert for Trae Young/future draft picks...Trae will opt into his player option and he'll get bought out next season...the Wizards will have the most salary cap space next season and 2027-28 season.

    Some players improve. Some players get worse. Trae's defense has been very consistent, but his scoring has gotten worse while the league has gotten better.

    I mean seriously..any chance he had to be taken serious went out the window when he made sure they knew that he wanted to be a Wizard. Please never be a Rocket ever

    Damn. With all the b****ing you do about our own players, you wanted to send them away including multiple firsts for… Trae Young? :D

    Well damn, that’ll certainly solve all the problems LOL

    Kind of like Melo demanded to be traded to the Knicks when the Knicks were a crappy team and would be further decimated by giving up assets to trade for him.
