    Typically, doing the opposite of Washington is a great thing to strive for.

    Last year Kuzma is listed with those mpg - but he wasn't on the team the last half of the season.

    That wizards teams last year had pretty bad young talent. They had to give somebody minutes. We had CJ Elleby type of scrubs starting for 28 games the first year we were tanking.

    But last year Scoot getting benched when he was playing great - and similar where Clingan was stuck under 20mpg - were both pretty stupid for a team supposedly rebuilding around its youth. Although the way we've pivoted to spending over a 100 million on a 35 year old makes it seem like that supposed youth movement was never truly a prime goal of this franchise at any time.

    CJ Elleby started 28 games for us while Scoot started 10 last season. Thats the roles that just haven't made sense with this franchise since Cronin took over.

    OK, sure, all those minutes that they got last year were not enough.
