The restricted free agency of P.J. Washington does not appear to be coming to an end any time soon. But could the Charlotte Hornets look to have it reach its conclusion via a sign-and-trade deal? This comes from a mock trade appearing on Piston Powered which discusses whether or not this would work from Detroit’s perspective.
The hypothetical deal as proposed by Aaron Kellerstrass is a straight-up one-for-one swap. Going to Detroit is Washington via a sign-and-trade while the Hornets receive Marvin Bagley in return. There is a solid case as to why the Hornets would do this deal.
