The Washington Wizards and Houston Rockets have agreed on a trade involving Russell Westbrook and John Wall.
According to the deal, Houston will get John Wall and a lottery-protected first-round NBA draft pick in 2023 in exchange for Westbrook. Westbrook has been an All-Star in nine of the past ten seasons, and has $133 million over three seasons remaining on his contract, while John Wall is owed three years and $132 million on his contract.
I am very grateful to John Wall and his family for all they have done for our franchise and our community. John was the first player picked in the NBA draft and the first player we were blessed to pick under our new ownership of the Washington Wizards a decade ago. – Ted Leonsis chairman, and CEO of Monumental Sports
