"Heres why ADs injury issues arent as big a gamble for the Wizards as they would be for some other teams - theres a huge difference between a team that is counting on AD to help them win a title and where his salary is preventing them from getting even more help to do so vs a team that wants AD to help them get back into being generally competitive and has plenty of cap room. Plus considering how little Washington had to give up to get for him this is a great move"
