According to HoopsWire reporter Sam Amico, the Washington Wizards have indeed expressed a certain interest in Brooklyn Nets star Kevin Durant, who is in the whirlpool. However, according to some internal information, this interest from the Wizards is only tentative. Their real target is probably not Durant, but Utah Jazz backcourt core Donovan Mitchell. They will join the Mitchell competition and are willing to make a generous offer to the Jazz.

According to the news from The Athletic's authoritative reporter Shams Charania, the Washington Wizards are indeed very interested in Mitchell. In addition to them, the Charlotte Hornets may also become Mitchell's potential next home. Two well-known reporters broke the news one after another. It seems that the news that the Wizards are interested in Mitchell is basically confirmed.

There had been a lot of news that the New York Knicks were interested in grabbing Mitchell to further enhance the team's backcourt strength, but the Jazz required the Knicks to provide a large number of draft picks and multiple young players as bargaining chips. The Knicks refused to meet the conditions proposed by the Jazz, and the deal was stalled. Compared to the Knicks, the chips the Wizards can provide are not that generous. The Wizards' number of first-round picks is not as good as that of the Knicks, and the young players in the field seem to be inferior to the Knicks in terms of quality and potential.

If the Wizards want to acquire Mitchell, they may consider sending Kyle Kuzma (Kyle Kuzma) and Will Barton (Will Barton), two players with higher salaries, as well as Rui Hachimura (Deni Avdija), Corey Kispert (Corey Kispert) Isaiah Todd ( Isaiah Todd), they will also give away all their first-round picks and first-round swap rights in the next few years. But the question arises. The Jazz can get so many future assets by sending away Rudy Gobert. Do they really value the Wizards' chips?
