The Wizards are in a full tear down and eventually rebuild mode. However, they immediately opted to exercise Mike’s $3.5 million option for this coming season, and apparently they plan to keep him and possibly give him real minutes upfront. Hopefully we will see him back in the same kind of role he had for OKC. Slight correction to the above. The Celtics exercised the $3.5 million option PRIOR to trading him. They had to do that for cap matching purposes, as the player going to the Celtics (Porzingis) had a significantly higher salary than the key player leaving (Marcus Smart). Gallinari was included in the trade for a similar reason, although he makes more than Mike. When a team is over the cap, the incoming salary cannot significantly exceed the outgoing salaries.
