He's a minimum contract player for a reason but somehow the front office decided to give him 8m for his services.

The Washington Wizards can afford to be patient with Deni Avdija, who just finished his fourth NBA season and is still only 23 years old. Given what he showed this year, putting up career highs across the board with 14.7 points, 7.2 rebounds and 3.8 assists per game on 50.4 percent shooting overall and 37.4 percent from 3, no one could blame them for passing here.
There’s no doubt that Allen is the better, more established player at this point. Funnily enough, Allen and Avdija make an identical $15,625,000 next year, which means the Suns could pull off this trade. Adding a 6-foot-9 Swiss Army knife to their rotation would do wonders for Phoenix’s wing depth, and Avdija would be a superb two-way fit with this Suns team.
He shot 40.5 percent on catch-and-shoot 3s and 47 percent from the corners this season, which would help him space the floor around the Big 3. Avdija was also efficient in the lane, shooting just under 70 percent at the rim while ranking in the league’s 81st percentile in drives per 75 possessions. He even flashed some playmaking chops, placing in the 91st percentile in passing creation quality.
Unfortunately, as much as Avdija has been a recurring target on our Suns trade lists, it seems unlikely the Wizards would be foolish enough to give up a young player as they look to more of a long-term rebuild. Allen doesn’t really fit their timeline for those plans either.

How do you all feel about Deni Avdija? The Blazers desperately need shooting and Grayson would give them plenty of it on a Blazers team who are among the worst in the league at shooting the 3.
Deni would give us some more size on the wing and a player that can score from besides the 3 point line.

Luckily his shooting stroke has come back so we need to find trade partners while he is hot.

Yeah, no chance. The fact they gave up 2 1sts means they value him highly. I don't have any idea why they would want Allen. Sure they need shooting but they probably don't expect to seriously compete any time soon, have a young roster, etc.

Yeah I've mentioned before he'd be a great add to the roster. But realistically, I don't think he's an option for us mainly because I don't think we have enough to get him. The Blazers gave up two FRP's and two second rounders to get him. t's probably going to cost more than our 2031 and Grayson
