Report: Washington Wizards Trade 52nd Pick in 2017 NBA Draft to New Orleans for Point Guard Tim Frazier

There it is, a ScottoBomb!

Just as the trade winds had cooled down, and everyone thought that we’d head into Thursday’s draft intact, Ernie Grunfeld and the Wizards pulled off another trade, moving the 52nd pick for Pelicans point guard Tim Frazier.

Of course the team was looking for a combo guard to provide bench help after John Wall played an absurd amount of minutes last season. Well it looks like they’ve found their man.

This is somewhat similar to the trade last year of a top 55 protected second round pick for point guard Trey Burke, but this move seems like it will have more positive ramifications for the team.
