I like the trade for Washington. There is some risk. Mainly if Trae can only play Trae Ball and the Wizard youngsters just watch him. But Washington doesn't need to pay their youngsters for a while so they get a look at Young. Washington has been irrelevant for a long time. They are still irrelevant, but they finally has a beginning of a nice young core developing. They got the best player in the deal and now they can see if it is going to work out.
ATL independently decided they were not going to extend Young. So they got out ahead now instead of making things really awkward. Sure it sucks the value was so low, but they have an ok/solid group of youth and a potential really nice high lottery pick.
