This trade has the Pacers sending over their star power forward Sabonis to Washington. The Pacers are currently 13th and the East and have been a big disappointment without T.J Warren. There are many trade rumors saying the Pacers should break up their forward duo of Sabonis and Turner and I agree. The key pieces going to the Pacers in this trade are Rui Hachimura and Thomas Bryant. Last year before tearing his ACL, Thomas Bryant averaged almost 17 ppg. If they even get half of that form this is a major win for them. They also add Rui Hachimura, a young talented forward, that really hasn't been on the court this year. Currently, he is stuck behind Kyle Kuzma so this would open up playtime for him. The Wizards started off the season 10-3 but have since dropped to 22-21 and are the 8th seed. This trade gives them a star to pair with Bradley Beal who is on one of the best contracts in the league. They do lose some depth but they have plenty of guys who should be getting minutes regardless.

Wizards: Dinwiddie, Beal, Kuzma, Sabonis, Gafford Bench: Neto, Holiday, Kispert, Avdija, Harrell Next 3: Winston, Bertans, Gill

Pacers: Brogdon, Levert, Caldwell-Pope, Hachimura, Turner Bench: Duarte, Holiday, Lamb, Craig, Bryant Next 3: Sykes, Brissett, Jackson
