The Washington Wizards move to land Trae Young in a blockbuster trade ahead of the NBA trade deadline gave the team a savvy playmaking guard to fill a massive void in the backcourt.
Young's arrival gave the team a facilitator to fill the role in head coach Brian Keefe's system, a fit that the team believed would be vital in the development of young prospects like Alex Sarr and Tre Johnson in the team's future plans.
With extension talks already heating up, it seems as if the team has seen enough from the former No. 5 overall pick to believe he could be a fit to not only elevate the young talent on the roster, but to help them compete in the Eastern Conference sooner rather than later.
