NBA Trade Rumors: Wizards open to moving John Wall, Bradley Beal?
NBA Trade Rumors: In what would be viewed as a huge change of heart, the Washington Wizards appear open to moving John Wall and/or Bradley Beal
The Washington Wizards might officially be open for business. After getting off to a 5-11 start to the season, with no real signs of turning things around, the team is reportedly to the idea of shaking up the roster.
And that could mean moving cornerstones John Wall and/or Bradley Beal, two players that have pretty much been off the table for the past few seasons.
Question is, does this mean that the Wizards are open to listening to offers or will they be actively looking to try and find ways to change the complexity of their team? We honestly don’t know yet, but could find out soon.

"[via ESPN]As the Washington Wizards’ season spirals, the franchise has started to deliver teams an impression that every player on their roster — including All-Star guards John Wall and Bradley Beal — is available for discussion in trade scenarios, league sources told ESPN."
The Wizards would still probably like to add to the team, instead of trading away assets at this point. By no means does this report mean that we’re going to get a Wizards fire sale. At the same time, if there’s a deal to be made out there with the inclusion of one of their stars, I don’t think they’re going to automatically shut down the idea.
For example, a star for star trade could be something that the Wizards pursue. Perhaps if a player like Kawhi Leonard or Jimmy Butler becomes available again, the could try to engage and potentially make a blockbuster swap.
At this point, the Wizards need to try and shake up this team somehow. They clearly aren’t reacting to each other, and this squad has the feeling of a team that really doesn’t trust each other.

And considering that this team has been together for quite a long time, that’s not great. Maybe management is finally realizing that and has come to the understanding that something needs to change.
