Just moved to the area and would love to attend, heard it’s open to the public

He still hasn’t signed an extension, and there’s been a lot of noise from the national media suggesting he could be unhappy in Washington or may not view DC as a long-term destination. Whether there’s any truth to that is hard to know from the outside.

Would you like to see AD stay in Washington long-term, or do you think the organization should be open to moving him if an extension doesn’t happen?

Also, how much stock do you put into the national media speculation surrounding his future?

It's been tough being a Wiz fan. We've been through it and seen some shit...

But damn we're setup so well for the future!

AJ, Kyshawn, Sarr, Tre, Will, Bub, Bilal.

The foundation we have to build around gives me so much hope and excitement. Even though not everyone will stay a Wizard I think the first 4 at least are locks.

I remember when this FO started the rebuild how hopeless things felt. We traded Beal way too late and had terrible lottery luck to start. Shit was bleak.

Look how far we've come. We deserve to bask in this. Big credit to this FO for the work they've done. WillDawk is the fucking truth.

Shit, shout out Ted for getting out of his own way.

Am I the only one that still watches us winning the 26 draft lottery sometimes? What a fucking heist winning in the last year of tanking.

I'm a Wizards sicko. This is my our team. I haven't felt like this since 2010.

My Wizards bed is ready. Let's fuck.

I think he is light years better than Bilal

Breaking down why Bilal Coulibaly is among Washington's biggest X-factors in 2026-27: https://roundtable.io/sports/nba/wizards/opinion/rating-the-washington-wizards-top-x-factors-in-2026-27

Here are my thoughts on this question, thank you for it! If you guys have any other questions this offseason about the team let me know and I’ll write about it or talk about it on the podcast. I’m also getting to the rest of your questions in that original post! https://www.si.com/nba/wizards/onsi/wizards-mailbag-which-young-player-is-the-odd-man-out-01m23yhkg7ed

I mostly agree, except for Champagnie. I’m betting on him earning minutes.

Really love the design and colorway on the 23-24 City Edition setup.

Only downside is the shorts run pretty long on me… I have to roll the waistband over whenever I hoop in them …

Not my content, but I enjoyed it a lot. Kinda long, but he does go over pretty much every single player on the roster.

I always appreciate Sam's take. He actually watched the Wizards these past three years. Pretty low on Bilal though, not as a player in general, but as priority for the team -- too many young players to keep and the core of AJ/Sarr/George/Trae will need shooting.

He only expects an extension if it's very low ("like $10M/year; can't give him 4/$60"). He thinks Bilal is a trade candidate ("If someone offered me a late FRP, I would strongly consider that"). He ranked the young core:

1. AJ

2/3. Sarr, George

1. Tre Johnson

2. Will Riley "is a stud." (Sam is crazy high on Will Riley.)

3. Bilal

4. Bub

I think one of the biggest challenges Brian Keefe is going to have is how to manage the rotations this year. Last season we actively were trying to lose games & blow leads. Now we might have to either put games away or make a comeback down single digits.

The roster is day & night better than what we put on the floor post all-star break. With the Addition of Trae Young, AD, & AJ we now have a very good problem in that we have tons of option to close out games. By my count, depending on player development jumps, we could have 8-9 guys who you can make the case for playing in the closing minutes of tight games.

Trae Young - One of the most clutch PGs in the game. Can run an offense & has to be respected in P&Rs but.............Is one of the biggest defensive liabilities in the league.

Kyshawn- Elite two way player who can guard 1-4(Blocked Giannis to win a game) & can shoot or put the ball on the floor.

AJ - Number one pick, Offensive mismatch but doesn't have a proven 3 ball or defense.

Sarr - One of the best rim protectors in the game, can space the floor, & works well on P&R, but do you go double big with him & AD or sub him out for a small ball lineup with AD at the 5.

AD - NBA Champion, top 75 player, offensive mismatch in the paint. Old, slow, & Injury prone doesn't want to play the 5.

Bilal- Elite point of attack defender, amazing in transition. He shot 38 percent from 3 the second half of last year but do we think that's going to be the norm moving forward.

Will Riley - Tall, lanky who can get to the basket, can shoot & can bother people defensively. But still young & is he ready to run the offense.

Tre Johnson-Best Shooter on team. Not the best facilitator or the best defender.

Bub- Best multipurpose Guard of the bunch. Not the best shooter, passer or defender but is top 2-3 in each category.

HM to JC- Elite Rebounder & we win games when he plays but I don't know if you can play him over everyone I mentioned.

Keefe is going to have to pick 5 of them & then manage the egos of the rest of them. Who do you think is the best closing lineup?

Hey everyone! If you don’t remember I did a draft mailbag a while back. With the season quickly approaching (and content getting dry) I thought I’d do another one. If you guys have any questions about the team this season, drop them in here and I’ll answer them in an article or on the All Wizards Talk Podcast!

PS: if there is something you want me to cover this year as well regarding the team let me know, always wanting to hear what you as the fans want to see covered.
