D’Angelo Russell Opts In
Veteran guard D’Angelo Russell has chosen to opt into his $6 million player option for the 2026-27 season with the Wizards, as reported by Jake Fischer. Acquired from the Mavericks in February, Russell averaged 10.2 points and 4.0 assists in 26 games last season but did not report to the Wizards due to ongoing discussions about a potential buyout. With the possibility of re-signing Trae Young, Russell may become a trade asset for Washington. The Wizards currently have 12 guaranteed contracts and hold two picks in the upcoming draft.
