Deal of the Day 11.5, Salary cap rules may be bent but hopefully not broken.
Today’s Deal: Getting the Warrior’s Attention at #2
Last time we dealt with the Warriors for #2 overall, the assets moving were Thomas Bryant and the #9 pick. Many felt that wasn’t enough to get the Warriors attention. The Deal put that on the shelf while we re-imagined what Golden State would want out of Washington that didn’t include Bradley Beal.
The Wizards trade the #9 overall pick in the 2020 NBA Draft, the #37 pick and forward Rui Hachimura to the Golden State Warriors for the #2 overall pick, a 2021 2nd round pick and forward Eric Paschall.
