Delon Wright follows in a long line of Wizards Killers who later signed with the team. He was a monster in the Wizards-Raptors 1st round playoff series in 2018. – 9:08 PM

Delon Wright will get most of the Non-Taxpayer MLE from the Wizards in that two-year, $16M deal. – 9:02 PM

Gary Harris? Delon Wright? Derrick Jones Jr.? A couple others who might be out of the Jazz’s price range like Bruce Brown? Kyle Anderson? Otto Porter Jr.? – 7:27 PM

Tax-MLE targets left that I like for the Nuggets:
Donte Divincenzo
Bruce Brown
Delon Wright
Gary Harris – 7:23 PM
Ryan Blackburn @NBABlackburn
Players the Nuggets could target that are still available and worth the taxpayer MLE (or more):
Delon Wright
Bruce Brown
Gary Payton II
Caleb Martin
Cody Martin
Derrick Jones Jr.
Gary Harris
Donte DiVincenzo
Target list is drying up. – 7:16 PM

With the Wizards still needing guards, I’ve heard (as others have) they like Delon Wright. Avery Bradley or Jevon Carter are also two players to watch. Both could bring 3PT shooting and defense to a backup role. nbcsports.com/washington/wiz…10:53 AM

More on this storyline

 

John Hollinger: As for No. 2, I think it’s obvious that Toronto needs another real guard on the roster, which would also help them avoid running VanVleet into the ground. Ricky Rubio and Tyus Jones are aspirational targets, but I don’t think either is coming here on the mid-level to be a backup. More realistically, old friend Delon Wright would be a nice fit here and could likely be had for less than the MLE. They also might take a long look at Eric Bledsoe, who is almost certain to be waived by Portland. -via The Athletic / May 30, 2022
