Overview
- Kelly Olynyk is headed to the Spurs on his expiring $13.45 million deal two days after arriving in Washington.
- The Wizards acquire Malaki Branham, Blake Wesley and a 2026 second-round pick to clear cap room and inject youth into their backcourt.
- Washington now carries 15 guaranteed contracts, creating a roster logjam that will require further moves.
- San Antonio reduces its guaranteed roster to 12 players and holds flexibility below the luxury-tax threshold to add depth.
- Olynyk averaged 8.7 points, 4.7 rebounds and 2.9 assists last season and brings veteran floor-spacing alongside Victor Wembanyama.
