Wizards may need to explore trades to fix a bench that keeps costing them games
After starting the season off 4-3, the Washington Wizards are currently on a four-game losing streak. They sit at a pretty undesirable 4-7, and a lot of that is due to extremely subpar bench production. Their latest loss to the Detroit Pistons saw a 44-point night from Anthony Davis spoiled by the bench scoring eight total points.
It's not to say the bench doesn't have talent. Tre Johnson, Deandre Ayton, Bilal Coulibaly, and Bub Carrington have all shown flashes of being a solid unit, but they haven't been consistent. It doesn't help that Khris Middleton, brought in to be a solid contributor, is currently out of the rotation, considering they could really use his skill set.
