Give me your thoughts on this one!

Deni is one of the most underrated players in the league wtf are Wizards doing??

Shit crazy i would of never thought deni would be gone before Kyle kuzma crazy world we live in

How odd. Avdija was finally putting it all together.

This is a crazy organization , no others words only clowns , deni will be a superstar wherever it will land .

I think Deni still has lots of potential. That boy was a hooper in Israel

As a Blazer fan living in Portland, this is GREAT! Am Israel Chai! 🇮🇱

Weird move from the Wizards. I thought Deni was developing nicely. The extra pick in 2029 makes it a bit better from a Washington POV, but still, for me this is a big win for the Blazers.

Love this pick as a Blazer’s fan! A 23 yo starting SF that can pass dribble shoot + rebound to play next to Grant. Can trade Grant and/or Simons still. Starting: Simons Sharpe Deni Grant Ayton and Bench: Scoot Clingan Toumani. Can trade Grant or Ant

I can't believe they sent out one of their best young players for a vet and the 14th in a weak draft. I guess they want to capture the flag next year, but... They are getting a great character guy in Brogdon, who many other teams have coveted in the last 2 years. They could flip him for a future 1st round, but I would have to think the Wiz would have gotten more for Deni.

Surprised Michael Winger did this. Brogdan will likely request a trade. This makes no sense to me. Didn't they just add ousted Pistons g.m. Troy Weaver to their front office?

Great trade for Portland

Deni Avdija is best as a point forward. he played PG at high-school. they've changed his role from SF to point forward after the TDL and his numbers went to 20ppg 6apg 8rpg at that part of the season. ending with 15 6 4 the all season. True shooting 60%.

The Wizards' management publicly stated that they wanted a second lottery pick, consequently it should come as no surprise that a trade actually occurred on draft night. Simultaneously, though not publicly stated, they must have considered using this trade opportunity to dig into the minutes and shots that would normally belong to the forward position and allocate them to Billal's as well as this year's rookie draft picks future development. As a result, it is not surprising that either Kuz or Deni were the most likely to go. I believe that shortly after management began looking into trade options, it became apparent for various reasons how much the current NBA market values Deni over Kuz, who may not have the true demand as advertised, which is why Deni ended up being the one who was eventually moved.

Portland fan happy to see what Avdija brings to the table, but does this trade suggest Brogdon's value was overhyped? Seems like the draft capital almost projects him as a negative asset.

First, I wanna say I’m a big fan of your channel. I love your content. I just recently came across your content a couple months ago. I have to slightly disagree with you. I think you move on from Deni The wizards need first round assets as it was demanded from ownership per report a few months ago This front office are going to bring Washington back to prominence I think the Washington wizards in the next three seasons will challenge for play in That’s how confident I am in Will Dawkins n Winger, n Travis Schlenk

He is the only player they could get picks for.

Deni wanted to stay there. In Israel, sports it's a culture, not a business. Meaning he became a fan. Presti has a lot of assistants. It doesn't mean they are going to be good GMs (Weaver was really bad in Detroit), like working for coach Pop, doesn't mean you are going to be a good coach. To my opinion, they have made a lot of mistakes, and just a little good things. They didn't find a good offer for Kuzma, so they traded Dani because they have a lot of forwards, and they wanted to let Bilal, Sarr and the others more minutes. At least Deni got a new front office that believes in his abilities.

Hey man, great analysis... I think the blazers should think about trading more than just Grant (after the Avdija trade). I think they should flip Grant for younger assets/picks, trade Simons (to free up minutes for Scoot at PG and Sharpe at SG), and trade Ayton/Williams to open up the clingan minutes... What do you think are good destinations for each player I brought up?

New portland fan from israel🤚

Washington it stupid

I mean I guess I can see a little bit of it they got draft capital and probably will flip Brogdon at the deadline for more picks. They ended up getting Bub Carrington and kyshawn George so they got way too many guards. Idk what the wizards are doing.

Totally different front office, they didn't pick Deni

What about Tyus Jones? I thought they signed him last year to be their starting PG

Well Washington does not like potential they see potential and think not in my team

Bring back jones Brogdon, Jones-Poole,shamet the bob/kispert kuzma/…… sarr/bagley at this point I say take a chance on bol bol and mamba and call it a day bring in some tall players to give sarr some competition

Malcolm is good no matter where he goes

this trade more likely confirms that grant would go to the mavs and will accept vets from the mavs to complete their bench

Im assuming Malcolm Brogdon gets flipped but if u keep him why? Why are we trading avdija for pick 14 in this draft? I wonder if blazers move grant. I also wonder why there trading a 2029 pick. Wouldnt it be better to keep the pick and if ur looking promising in 2028 then use 2029 in bigger move? I like adding avdija just curious why Also nice logo change

It's a sign the Wiz are tanking. Sag for Flagg

I just don’t understand the logic behind this. I saw someone justify it by saying Deni doesn’t fit the timeline and it’s best to maximise on his value now than later when he’s only got a year or two left. But that still doesn’t feel right to me, he’s still only 23. Moves like this really make you wonder if there was something happening with him behind the scenes? Potentially even political? Idk this is so weird.

I hope we get Cooper flagg next year hiin alex sarr snd bilal coulibaly

I think they’re just trying to find a character and culture and Deni isn’t really a model for the market of Washington in terms of marketability and character

Who knows why Washington dose anything

I think this is good for Deni. DC basically wasting the guys talent if he stayed there. Don't mind my account name I was different person back then haha

Maybe they use 14 to snag Topic and pray Brogdon plays for the season so they have a PG to operate with Poole and Bilal and I guess they are committing to Kuzma? With this move yeah not great that’s a direction that could make some sense

My opinion is New Gm trying to make a name for himself with a big trade yet a very stupid one.

He was supposed to get traded to the mavs!!! :(

They're probably gonna trade Malcolm brodgan for more picks probably

Kings should've targeted him instead of Kuzma

Seriously? So much talk in Dallas about trying to get him. Would have been a nice fit there. Instead he goes from one bad franchise to another. Kind of depressing....
