So we were just talking Ben and I were about what the wizards are doing.

0:06.1

And they did something else over the weekend.

0:08.1

I'm for this process.

0:10.7

I am.

0:11.6

No guarantees.

0:12.8

And I'm not so sure why many of you believe that trading for Cam Whitmore is going to make them a playoff team.

0:20.0

I saw some of that on social media

0:21.9

before the show. I certainly don't think that's the case. You don't want them to be a playoff team

0:28.1

next year. They've got a protected first round pick in the top nine. So for those of you that don't

0:35.3

know a lot about Cam Whitmore, he's from the area, grew up a

0:39.2

instead. He's a 6-7, 225, 230-pound wing. Washington's got plenty of wings on their roster, that's for sure. To me, this is like overall, this is one of, they traded two second-round picks. A second-round pick next year, which is the pick day acquired from Charlotte,

1:45.1

and a 2029 second rounder. The Wizards have so many picks first and seconds right through the

1:51.4

early 2030s. This is not a high cost. So I like the trade. I like the, you know, the low risk

1:59.5

of two second rounders for a player who was a first round selection
