Craig opens the show reacting to the Wizards’ latest move—acquiring CJ McCollum, Kelly Olynyk, and a future second-rounder from the Pelicans in exchange for Jordan Poole, Saddiq Bey, and the No. 40 pick. Craig calls it an “incredibly smart, tactical trade” by the Wizards, highlighting how Washington is positioning itself for the future. With nearly $100M in projected cap space for 2026, the Wizards are setting themselves up to capitalize on other teams’ roster restrictions and gain leverage in future trade negotiations.
