Wizards trade Arenas to Magic
The Washington Wizards have traded point guard Gilbert Arenas to the Orlando Magic for shooting guard Rashard Lewis.
Arenas seemed like he was ready to move on from Washington, and the Wizards felt the same way.
Between all of his knee issues, the gun situation and drafting John Wall, the writing was on the wall.
The Wizards pick up a legitimate shooting guard who can knock down three-pointers, something they really don’t have.
Lewis can open things up on the interior for JaVale McGee and Audray Blatche, but this is more of a team chemistry move than anything else.
