Wonder if Washington can get Nerlens Noel with the MLE?? Does Nerlens get more than that on the open market?

And for what it's worth, Austin makes Washington's bench better.

They could be making room for Dwight.

It doesn't make sense I know given Washington's volatile locker room, but Washington doesn't have a plethora of options.

I keep forgetting about Dwight. He'd be an on-court fit there for sure, but sheesh that'd be the NBA's most unlikeable team.

That could really be a divisive locker room with Wall/Beal/Morris/Rivers and Dwight. There will be nightly fistfights over who didn't get the ball.

DJ must be next? Kudos to Doc though for trading his own son.

It was Michael Winger and Jerry West, Doc no longer has any GM responsibilities.

Looks like Rivers the coach may be next.

My guess is he is happy to lose the daddy's boy who has a different set of rules plus daddy already got him his money.
