The Washington Wizards have been a team that has done nothing but draw attention to the current state of the franchise over the last few months.
After dealing Kyle Kuzma away for Khris Middleton ahead of the NBA trade deadline in Februrary and then landing Marcus Smart shortly after, it seemed like general manager Will Dawkins' plan was crystal clear.
Taking a page out of Sam Presti and the Oklahoma City Thunder's book, it seemed the Wizards were focusing on landing veterans who could increase their trade value with extended minutes in a rebuilding situation for them to soon flip for additional assets.
