Washington Wizards
2018-19Which players deserved investigation for the Washington Wizards’ problems in 2018-19?
Dec 17, 2018 — Ernie Grunfeld
The decision this board surrounds ultimately brought in Trevor Ariza. Later outcomes never rewrite the board.WAS on 2018-12-17: the listed basketball needs were rim protection, rim pressure, rebounding. 1 player(s) were publicly on the market, but none had a source linking this team to them. 1 open-market candidate(s) matched at least one listed need. Market access, basketball fit, price, salary route, and legality remain separate.
Why is he here?
Markieff Morris: Markieff Morris was on the public trade market, but no source linked WAS to him. His prior basketball profile addressed multiple needs: rebounding, rim_protection. The candidate salary route was not reliable enough to screen. Exact transaction legality remains withheld without a complete package and exception ledger.
prior-season impact context: 0.3 per 100 (O 0.1 / D 0.2) — Prior impact context is separate from team fit, price, and transaction value.
Historical decision board. A public-market player is not presented as a team target without a named team link. Minimum outgoing salary is not exact legality. Missing asking price is not a zero price. Later outcomes do not alter the decision-date board.
