Our View
After opting into his player option last week, Gallinari is headed to Washington as part of the blockbuster trade. He is joined by Tyus Jones and Mike Muscala as newcomers to the Wizards roster. After missing the entire 2022-23 season due to a torn ACL in his left knee it's likely that Gallinari will make a full recovery and be good to go for the 2023-24 campaign. However, it's unclear where the soon-to-be-35-year-old will fit in on a Wizards team that appears to be embracing a rebuild. Gallinari's contract is set to expire after this season, so it's very possible that Washington facilitates a trade to send the Italian wing to a more appealing situation.
