Wizards get: SF Jared Dudley
Bucks get: Protected second-round pick (from Washington)
The Wizards went a little overboard in an effort to fill the hole left by Paul Pierce at small forward this summer. Not only did they do this deal, but they also traded up to draft rookie SF Kelly Oubre Jr, while still having solid role players like SF Otto Porter Jr and SF/SG Martell Webster waiting in the wings. Still, it’s hard not to love this deal. Dudley’s $4.25 million contract fits perfectly into the trade exception from dealing away PG Andre Miller, so the money is no sweat. And Washington gave up essentially nothing in exchange, meaning this deal can only be positive. And it is, as Dudley’s 7.2 point per game with Milwaukee last year, excellent defense, and nice three-point touch will be of great use to the Wizards.
