Having no picks is particularly advantageous for us. We owe one to the Knicks, but we’re confident we’ll maintain our current status by continuing to perform poorly, especially considering the exceptional talent in this upcoming draft class.
We should aim to become competitive within the next two years. And having Trae as a primary guard will free space for Alex Sarr on pick & rolls, and the other shooters/forwards on the team too :)
Our salary cap is $80 million, so even with Trae Young’s $49 million contract, we still have substantial room to secure bad contracts or free agents this summer.
Additionally, we haven’t had a superstar on our roster since Russell Westbrook’s tenure from 2020 to 2021, and John Wall before that.
The Wizards don’t have any big extensions looming, so even if they gave Young a two- or three-year deal this summer, they’ll be in great shape financially. This might be the perfect rental with a chance at long-term success. And if it doesn’t work out, they can cut the bait and maintain business as usual in their development process.

Great news to make it more accessible to everyone, globally!
About last night: #OuiPlay #WNCAA College Basketball opening night, in Paris!
Baylor vs Duke
Cal. Berkeley vs Vanderbilt
Great to see the future of Women’s Basketball in my hometown, for a special double-header! Great performances from Taliah Scott (Baylor #0) and Mikayla Blakes (Vanderbilt #1)
Stopped today’s run at 5k:
between the recovery from leg injury + being under the weather this past weekend, having just eaten lunch, and the windy weather, I’d rather hit my weekly goal by pushing later this week than pushing too hard today.
Solid Euroleague Win at a time when we’re having 5 games in 10 days.
We were clearly better than Baskonia and at the end Nadir caught fire! But defense needs to improve, and a few other things too… long season! #ParisBasketball #Euroleague
Incredibly excited to finally get to my #ParisBasketball home opener tomorrow! Hype’s been building up, the team is playing faster than ever, and while this promises to be a challenging season, our roster is overall more balanced than the past 2 seasons. #Euroleague and #BetclicElite, here we come!
Boos during practice swings and the sing-song “YEW-ESS-AY! YEW-ESS-AY!” after a European miss were tiresome, but survivable. What crept in on Saturday was different: insults aimed at players’ wives, homophobic slurs, cheap shots at McIlroy’s nationality dripping with tiresome stereotypes, gleeful reminders of Pinehurst the moment McIlroy crouched over anything inside five feet.
What happened here didn’t invent the tone of American life so much as reflect what’s been an incremental breakdown in public behavior. The country now lives in all-caps, from school-board meetings that sound like street rallies and comment sections that have spilled into the street.
In Nuremberg for work for the week, and decided to go check out the local football team with some of my colleagues.
We were seated next to the Berlin fans, and unfortunately, the stadium has a running track around it, which I generally really dislike. But other than that fun atmosphere and frustrating experience to watch the home team lose 0-3. Good experience if they were playing better, I would try to go see that more regularly considering I am visiting this town four times a year.
