Washington Wizards
The Washington Wizards have been a surprise around the league to this point. They have found some early-season success thanks to Bradley Beal and some key newcomers. Harrison Barnes could be one of the finishing touches to the rotation as the season goes on.
Beal continues to be one of the best scorers in the NBA and a player to build around. It is unlikely that he requests a trade out of town and this means Washington could continue to be aggressive in order to put the right pieces around him.
Kyle Kuzma and Spencer Dinwiddie have been welcomed additions who have made an impact right away. Now, Barnes could bring some more experience to a team that is looking to return to the postseason.
The Washington Wizards did not have expectations coming into the season but that could change as the year goes on if they keep putting together some wins.

When the trade deadline comes around, the Washington Wizards will have two options. If they continue to win some games, they could go the route of buying instead of moving some big names. Barnes could be an under-the-radar target for the Wizards.
