For the next few seasons, there may never be a chance to snag a superstar at an identical price tag as Trae Young. His value will only increase so much as a Washington Wizard this season; therefore, the LA Clippers should maximize it before the four-time all-star proves why CJ McCollum and Corey Kispert were a historically low return.
Furthermore, to land Young from the Wizards, the no-brainer offer the Clippers would send correlates to giving up John Collins, Bogdan Bogdanovic, and Nicolas Batum.
Circumstances are standing in the way of the Clippers submitting this proposal to Washington, but if all falls through, head coach Tyronn Lue would be coaching a premier floor general, a fearless competitor, and someone with the capability to quickly be regarded as a franchise-building block.
