The Washington Wizards are coming off a very disappointing season, finishing as the 14th seed in the Eastern Conference with a 15-67 record.
They missed the NBA playoffs for the third consecutive season.
The Wizards will be a team to watch during the offseason as they may look to improve their roster.
according to Bovadathey are the favorites to acquire Josh Giddey (if he is traded by the Oklahoma City Thunder).

Guidi would be an interesting addition for the Wizards. He's a young player (21 years old) coming off a season in which he averaged 12.3 points, 6.4 rebounds, and 4.8 assists per game, shooting 47.5 percent from the field and 33.7 percent from the field. Within 3 points in 80 games.
He was the No. 6 pick in the 2021 NBA Draft and played three seasons (all in Oklahoma City).
The Thunder are the No. 1 seed in the Western Conference and defeated the New Orleans Pelicans in the first round of the NBA Playoffs.
However, they lost to the Dallas Mavericks in the second round (out of 6 games).
Guidi only averaged 12.5 minutes of playing time during the series, so his future with the franchise will be a hot topic this offseason.
