Potential Trade Targets

Deni spent the first 3 years of his NBA career shooting 30% from 3.

Now that he is on an absolute tanker he's shooting a blistering 37% on 3 attempts per game.

Color me skeptical that he can shoot
 
You could put protections on the pick to make the value work.

I don't watch him a lot, but just based off of stats I would say he looks like he is worth a lottery protected first.
Hats his value to this team? Id rather just develop Hendricks and Simone and look for a better scoring big wing option to compliment that pair.
 
I'm not trading a first for a guy who isnt even better than Simone.

I don't see mounds of potential there. I think he's currently punching above his weight class stats wise because he's on a bad team, not despite being on a bad team.

Solid bench player imo. Not worth a first.

Come on now. Simone feasts off of amazing looks on offense. Deni is a better rebounder and passer than him. I think a better defender too although that could be debatable. Plus you know he’s WAY younger.

I think it might take a real like top 4 protected type pick. They also have other spare parts that could be interesting in Kispert, Gafford, Jones, Wright. I wonder if you could finesse a bigger deal that nets another part (obviously finding a way to provide some additional value).

We also have multiple picks in the 2025 and 2027 years that you could say "we will send pick x with top 4 protections and if the pick falls in those protections we will give you the other pick" type of thing. It would limit the ability to trade the picks for a star but I am dubious that will happen anyway. If we were also looking for a John Collins dumping grounds you could work that into a Wizards deal.

He looks like he would be a decent upgrade to Simone. He averages 5.2ast/36 minutes vs Simone's 1.7.

I don't know though, I'm not a Deni expert. From what I know and have seen I would be excited if we traded for him.

Deni is a better passer is the only thing I will give him over Simone. I watched Simone absolutely body Deni on a rebounding opportunity Deni should have had. Maybe he has an edge overall, but it's slight and contextual if anything
