While the possibility of an overhaul was expected, it\u2019s still hitting fans hard. In the past few days, the Wizards have traded their franchise player Bradley Beal and the unicorn Kristaps Porzingis.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As expected, Kyle Kuzma declined his $13 million player option so he can test free agency. Based on the way everything is unfolding, it is highly unlikely he will be back in a Wizards uniform.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It is also being reported that Jordan Goodwin and Isaiah Todd will follow Beal to Phoenix.\u00a0Goodwin and Beal have history dating back to Goodwin playing for Beal&#8217;s youth basketball team Bradley Beal Elite.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With the leverage Beal held with his no trade clause, it makes sense that he is taking his mentee with him. The final details are still being worked out while the Wizards find a home for Chris Paul who was also included in the Wizards-Phoenix trade.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Monumental Sports President Michael Winger made it clear in his introductory press conference that the new regime has full authority to reset the roster\u00a0if that is what they choose to do. It is clearly the route they have decided to take. Now that a vast majority of the trades have occurred, the Wizards shift their full attention to putting the pieces together in tonight\u2019s NBA Draft.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">In light of Bradley Beal\u2019s pending trade,  Michael Winger said at his intro press conference: \u201cWe have full authority to reset the roster if that\u2019s what we decide to do.\u201d <br><br>He also discussed the future of Kristaps Porzingis and Kyle Kuzma which will be the next big decisions. <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/SFgt2sm5kG\">pic.twitter.com\/SFgt2sm5kG<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Carita Parks (@CaritaCParks) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/CaritaCParks\/status\/1670536163231162368?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">June 18, 2023<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The reality is that right now it is hard to understand the future vision of this team.
