August Mailbag: Your Wizards and Mystics questions

Thank you for submitting your questions for this month’s mailbag. My answers are below.

Why did the Wizards draft Cassius Winston not long ago? Now he’s playing overseas. - GreatWallofWizards

Last month, Winston signed with Bayern Munich of the German Basketball Bundesliga. Yes, it’s owned by the same organization with the soccer team. That said, he was a late second round pick in 2020. Most late second round picks won’t last that long in the NBA.

With Bradley Beal taking up 35% of the entire team’s soft salary cap, how are the Wizards going to get All-Stars to play with him?
