 Who Gets Gilbert Arenas' Money?
Who Gets Gilbert Arenas' Money?
Draft pick JaVale McGee, who has looked solid in summer league but not dominant, should be their primary post signing, but one more couldn’t hurt. They could also use a back up for Caron Butler, but that be asking for a lot to get both. To that end, here’s a list of potential free agents that could improve the Wizards chances at advancing through the 2008-09 NBA Playoffs.
