November 26th NBA Live News: This offseason, many players have changed teams, and the current offseason trade has come to an end. According to NBA reporter Zach Lowe, sources revealed that the Detroit Pistons have made tentative calls to the Washington Wizards in recent weeks to inquire about the possibility of an exchange between Griffin and Wall. It is understood that although the two managements have negotiated on this, they have not reached any agreement.
Wall and Griffin are both No. 1 picks in the draft. Each has had brilliant years and both have been selected to the All-Stars. However, in the past two years, the status of these two star players has declined significantly, becoming a burden to their respective teams.
Griffin was the top pick in the 2009 draft. When he first entered the league, Griffin was known for his explosive playing style, and his explosive style of play quickly attracted the support of many fans. Griffin spent the pinnacle of his career in the city of air-receiving.
However, the violent style of play has also caused Griffin to suffer frequent injuries, and continuous injuries have kept Griffin's attendance rate low in recent seasons. After switching to the Pistons, Griffin is still suffering from injuries. In the 2019-20 season, Griffin played in only 18 games due to a knee injury, averaging only 15.5 points, 4.7 rebounds and 3.3 assists per game, setting a career low in scoring.
Wall's situation is no better than Griffin. As the No. 1 pick in the 2010 draft, Wall was once the top point guard in the league, breaking into a world with his super fast speed and tall body.
However, with the rise of Bill, Wall is now the Wizards boss. The last time Wall played for the Wizards was the 2018-19 season, averaging 20.7 points, 3.6 rebounds and 8.7 assists per game. Last season, Wall slipped and fell at home, causing his left Achilles tendon to rupture and was eventually reimbursed throughout the season.
Griffin is currently in his five-year, $171 million contract, which will expire in the summer of 2022. Wall is in his four-year, $170 million contract period, which will expire in the summer of 2023.
