We dont need to be paying a dude who is out of shape, not a top 5 PG in the league, Not a top 20 player in the league, has had problems with multiple teamates and likes to party more than working on his game, who is hurt a lot, 46 million a year when he is 33.
Only like 5 players in the NBA should be in the conversation to make 40 million a year and Wall isn't even close to that guy.
Yeah , no interest in Wall either. Despite Teague's poor game against Memphis, I'm reasonably comfortable with the 3 PGs we have, and don't want the distraction of Wall.
BTW, Washington has come back to take the lead in that game. The Clippers aren't a team I thought we would have to worry about for playoff competition.

Just hypothetically speaking of Money didn't really matter would anyone would have wanted to do a Butler for Wall straight up deal?
Also you are welcome Wizards fans for burying these guys in my post it looks like they may get a win. Sweet!!! We could use a win against the west.
Minnesota: SG Bradley Beal, C Ian Mahinmi, 2019 2nd-round pick
Washington: SG Andrew Wiggins, PF Taj Gibson, PG Jerryd Bayless, 2019 first-round pick
I'd offer this, but even this is kind of stretching it for me. The Wizards get some bad money off their payroll, get a high-upside player to replace Beal, and a pretty decent pick for a disgruntled All-Star.
The Wolves get a young All-Star locked in for a couple more years. Yes, they eat an extra year of bad money, but it could be worth it. I feel more comfortable in Beal being the second-best player on a winning team than I do Wiggins. Beal's track record for a 25-year old despite the injury troubles is really impressive.
PG: Teague / Jones
SG: Beal / Rose
SF: Covington / Okogie
PF: Saric / Tolliver
C: Towns / Dieng
Ideally, Minnesota would add a complimentary wing with size in the off-season, but that's kind of how I envision building around Towns. Just surround him with as many shooters as you can.

They didn't want to move him for butler, su they aren't going trade him to us for anything that doesn't involve kat.

Then they shouldn't trade Beal. He's not their problem.

But why would they want to lock themselves into approx 96 mil between Wiggins/Porter/Wall for the next 3 years for about the 8th pick in the draft.
They can get a way better deal for Beal. We got to remember they declined a butler for Beal deal

Beal is the only player who is not massively overpaid on their team. He is the only one with value

Hes akso not the one causing the rift. I think it's mostly been porter, wall, and oubre.
