The lowest-profile team in the trading market is none other than the Wizards, unlike the Lakers, who have only 20 players and still end up with nothing happening. The Wizards were rarely heard in early trade rumours, but on the night of the trade deadline, the team made three trades, including one involving All-Star players. First, the Wizards traded inside Harrell to the Hornets, getting Ismail Smith and Carey and a second-round pick. Harrell is a passionate role player, he was also named to the top three shortlist for Best Sixth Man, and is a very good value for money player. This season he averaged 14 points, 6.7 rebounds and 2 assists per game, shooting 64 percent from the field.
However, Harrell also has obvious shortcomings, first, he is not a spatial interior line, does not have the ability to shoot outside, and will lose his role in small ball tactics. Second, his defensive ability is not strong, he is an offensive inside lineman; third, his ball quotient is not very high, and there are often unnecessary fouls. Smith, a 33-year-old veteran, has averaged 4.5 points, 1.5 rebounds and 2.6 assists this season, shooting 40 percent from three-point range, and while not as offensive as Harrell, he's better than him. Carey is a 20-year-old young man who, while averaging 2 points and 1.3 rebounds per game is not a good statistic, but also has good potential. Not to mention that there is a second round of signings, and overall, the Wizards do not suffer losses. Of course, for the Hornets to get the inside tough player Harrell after the playoffs are more stable. In another trade, the Wizards traded 25-year-old Aaron Holliday to the Suns, who averaged 6 points, 1 rebound and 2 assists per game this season, still qualified as a role player. It is worth mentioning that the player trade is not mentioned in the trade, and it is clear that this is the Wizards making room.
Of course, the heaviest deal was the third big deal, with the Wizards packing Dinwiddie and Sertens into the Lone Rangers in exchange for All-Star Porzingis and a second-round pick. Although Porzingis averaged 19 points, 7 rebounds and 2 assists per game, it turned out that he and Doncic were not the best partners, and the Lone Ranger had long intended to send him away, and more importantly, in order to send Porzingis away, the Lone Rangers were discussing his trade plan the day before the closing date of the trade. However, the Wizards are very happy with the deal, and the top is optimistic about the combination of Porzingis and Bill. Of course, the Lone Rangers have also paid off well, with Dinwiddie averaging 12 points, 47 rebounds and 5.8 assists per game this season, and Belstein averaging 5.7 points and 1.8 rebounds per game, one being an iron starter and the other a qualified rotation player. In addition, the Lone Ranger sent Porzingis with other intentions, the team has salary space to renew the outstanding JayLenson, he averaged 16 points, 4 rebounds and 5 assists per game this season, if he becomes a free agent, the Lone Ranger will lose a lot.
