✅ Final Grading
🌩️ OKLAHOMA CITY THUNDER - Final Grading: C+
Rationale: The Thunder adds a serviceable wing in Colby Jones who offers efficient depth, but giving up a longer-term asset like Dillon Jones and a pick swap for a player they waived shortly after limits the overall value of the move.
🧙 WASHINGTON WIZARDS - Final Grading: B-
Rationale: The Wizards gains a high-upside rookie on a cost-controlled deal and a future second-round swap, aligning perfectly with their rebuilding timeline and offering more long-term flexibility than Colby Jones.
✅ Summary
This minor offseason trade gives Washington long-term upside with Dillon Jones and minimal draft flexibility, making it a smart developmental move. For Oklahoma, Colby Jones adds wing depth and short-term reliability but doesn't move the needle. Overall, it’s a balanced deal, with the Wizards slightly edging it on future value.
