1 Ambitious Trade Target for Every Team After New York Knicks Win 2026 NBA Finals
It's official: The New York Knicks are 2026 NBA champions.
Also official: The offseason is now underway.
Odds are, most fans with an eye on the NBA offseason already know their team's finances down to the decimal and have every niche need mapped out.
While it's useful to be detailed and realistic about what's actually possible when the league's transaction cycle kicks into high gear, it's a lot more fun to dream big.
That's what we'll aim for here as we choose a trade target for every team that, if successfully acquired, would be cause for celebration. Some will be tricky to manage financially, while others require uncomfortable future-mortgaging risks. The idea is to put worries aside, aim as high as possible and enjoy the thought exercise.
Who knows? Some of these might even come true.
Atlanta Hawks: Giannis Antetokounmpo
1 of 30
The Atlanta Hawks don't show up very often in the reporting on and speculation about Giannis Antetokounmpo's preferred destinations.
So what?
Atlanta has the flexibility to become a power player this offseason if it wants to and should very much try to get itself into the Giannis business. Starting with Onyeka Okongwu and extending to a whole bunch of viable second options—Jalen Johnson, Nickeil Alexander-Walker, whoever they pick at No. 8 and CJ McCollum if he returns—the Hawks are in dire need of a fulcrum player.
Obviously, Atlanta would need to include real talent to get the Bucks' attention. But this team is pretty well equipped with two first-rounders in the 2026 draft and no shortage of future incoming capital to build a pick-led trade package. Better still, the Hawks figure to have easy access to nearly $30 million in cap space, which means they can take Giannis on without needing to send out contracts that total his $58 million salary.
Boston Celtics: Onyeka Okongwu
2 of 30
The best recent versions of the Boston Celtics, including the one that won the 2024 championship, featured centers who had to be defended on the perimeter. Last season, Onyeka Okongwu proved he was such a center.
A shooting breakout that saw the 25-year-old hit 37.6 percent of his 5.2 long-range attempts per game completely changed Okongwu's offensive profile.
Year-over-year shot data illustrates just how profound his transformation has been. As a rookie, Okongwu's average field-goal attempt distance was 4.0 feet from the basket. As a sophomore, he got even closer, averaging just 2.7 feet from the bucket. At that point, it appeared he was going to be a "dunks only" center.
Last year, Okongwu's average shot distance was 13.8 feet, and he took a career-high 44.5 percent of his attempts from beyond the arc.
That's exactly the kind of big man the Celtics need.
Brooklyn Nets: Chet Holmgren
3 of 30
The Brooklyn Nets need a cornerstone, and the Oklahoma City Thunder might overreact to Chet Holmgren's postseason struggles by making him available. At the very least, the Nets ought to put in a call to OKC with an offer to ease its tax burden via a pick-heavy package for the DPOY runner-up.
Brooklyn could send future draft assets belonging to the New York Knicks and Denver Nuggets, potentially include Nic Claxton (who'll make about half of Holmgren's salary next year) and even toss in one of the rookies it drafted in 2025.
The Thunder have plenty of other ways to trim their bills, but maybe they'd like to get out from under Holmgren's deal if they believe his brutal Conference Finals is going to send him into a Ben Simmons-esque spiral. Considering the way Michael Porter Jr. performed after the Nets extracted him from a previous title winner in Denver, they should feel pretty good about Holmgren finding his best form with them.
Charlotte Hornets: Jabari Smith Jr.
4 of 30
Don't ask why the Houston Rockets would want to trade one of the few members of their young core who can consistently hit threes. Just appreciate the fit of Jabari Smith Jr. on the Charlotte Hornets.
Charlotte has its backcourt spots locked up. LaMelo Ball and Kon Knueppel will handle things there for years to come. Coby White will add premium depth once the Hornets re-sign him, and Brandon Miller extends the team's promising scoring core up to small forward.
What the Hornets lack is a versatile defender up front who can also space the court. That's Smith, who could replace Miles Bridges at power forward and even add a new dimension as a small-ball 5 against the right opposing lineups.
Smith hit 36.3 percent of his treys last year and totes a 79.6 percent accuracy rate from the foul line for his career, suggesting he should match or beat that long-range mark going forward. Already extended and potentially hitting his early prime next season, he could add to Charlotte's group of rising stars.
Chicago Bulls: A Higher Pick
5 of 30
The No. 4 pick is nice and all, but this particular draft could present the Chicago Bulls with a golden opportunity to turn it into something better.
Though conventional wisdom has long said this class has a four-player top tier, that may not be how every team views it. If the Bulls are one of the organizations that disagrees, perhaps thinking there's a drop-off from No. 3 to No. 4, they could get opportunistic and move up a spot without having to pay too much of a premium.
One particularly intriguing gambit would involve the Bulls taking on Ja Morant and the No. 3 pick from the Memphis Grizzlies for No. 4. That might seem implausible on its face, but the Grizzlies might never be able to move Morant without giving up something to grease the skids. And if Memphis is among the teams that doesn't think there's much difference between the third and fourth pick, the Bulls could capitalize.
Morant comes with risks, but we can't pretend he's totally without upside. Chicago could add a player who might only need a change of scenery to regain his star status and make a one-spot move up the draft board.
Cleveland Cavaliers: Royce O'Neale
6 of 30
You know you've got roster flexibility issues when Royce O'Neale, a journeyman vet entering his age-33 season, counts as an ambitious trade target.
Sure, we could have tabbed Giannis as the Cleveland Cavaliers' pie-in-the-sky option. But we already sent him to Atlanta, and it's hard to argue a deal that might actually give up a better player (we're talking over the next handful of seasons) in Evan Mobley feels bold in the right kind of way. That one skews closer to "reckless."
O'Neale is probably an upgrade over the grab-bag mix of small forwards Cleveland tried this past season. He's become a reliable 40.0 percent three-point shooter and can still defend multiple positions in a starting role. At the moment, the Cavs don't have someone who can tick both of those boxes as well as he can.
Dallas Mavericks: Scoot Henderson
7 of 30
The Portland Trail Blazers ran the offense through Deni Avdija last season and figure to do so going forward after the All-Star forward broke out as a first option. Only next year, Damian Lillard will re-enter the fray, presumably in his typical high-usage role.
That's the Dallas Mavericks' way in on a Scoot Henderson deal.
Hey, Blazers! You're clearly not using him. We'll take him.
Henderson was the No. 3 pick in 2023, is averaging 13.5 points and 5.0 assists for his career and continues to show flashes of high-end-starter potential. That type of player isn't typically available ahead of his age-22 season, but the circumstances we just laid out could make Henderson a real option for Dallas.
Kyrie Irving has the track record, but he's aging and may never be the same coming off his torn ACL. Better to invest in a lead guard who can develop on the same timeline as franchise centerpiece Cooper Flagg.
Denver Nuggets: Jrue Holiday
8 of 30
Maybe a trade target doesn't count as ambitious if the acquiring team, the Denver Nuggets, can also expect to get a couple of draft picks and a valuable young player in the bargain. But let's game this out.
The Nuggets need to get better defensively, replenish their draft assets and add some athleticism to keep up with their younger competition in the West. Sending Jamal Murray to the Blazers for Jrue Holiday, Scoot Henderson and a couple of first-round picks accomplishes all three goals.
Holiday has won rings with two different teams and would add a measure of defensive stability to Denver's operation that Murray never has. Longer term, Henderson could pair with restricted free agent Peyton Watson to inject more open-floor speed and force than the Nuggets have had in years.
More broadly, turning Murray's massive contract into a couple of smaller ones should appeal to a Denver team that has painted itself into a transactional corner over the past handful of seasons.
Detroit Pistons: Kyrie Irving
9 of 30
Anybody who watched the Detroit Pistons fail to get past the Cavs in the East semifinals understands how desperately Cade Cunningham needs offensive help.
Jalen Duren couldn't provide it, which is the biggest issue from a long-term perspective, but neither could vets like Tobias Harris or Caris LeVert. If the Pistons want to do more than bully their way through 82 regular season games with defense and hustle, they need to equip themselves with a player who shows up on the offensive end when the games matter most.
Kyrie Irving is basically the walking embodiment of pure offensive skill, and he's shown time and again that there's not a playoff defense capable of slowing him down.
Lest there be any concern about Irving's form after missing last year with a torn ACL, understand he'd only be a second option here behind Cunningham. Detroit's window is open right now, and Irving is exactly the kind of offensive force it needs.
Golden State Warriors: Kawhi Leonard
10 of 30
Kawhi Leonard will play his age-35 season next year and comes with durability concerns too pronounced for most teams.
On the Golden State Warriors, he'd look like a springy rookie with a better chance of staying healthy than most of the other starters.
Draymond Green and Stephen Curry are both older than Leonard, and Curry logged fewer than his 65 games in 2025-26. If Al Horford comes back, Leonard could be the Dubs' second-youngest starter.
Leonard proved last season he could still function as a fulcrum on offense, which could provide the relief Curry needs to make it through a season healthy. If the Clippers are willing to take back Jimmy Butler's expiring deal and picks or young players as sweeteners, there's probably a deal to be made here.
Golden State is trying to make one or two more runs at competitive relevance, and Leonard would give it the short-term upside it craves.
Houston Rockets: Trey Murphy III
11 of 30
Speculation about a Jaylen Brown pursuit is interesting for a team that needs an offensive boost, but the Celtics star would likely cost several of the Houston Rockets' best young players.
That makes Trey Murphy III a more reasonable option.
Jabari Smith Jr. could anchor a package that might intrigue the New Orleans Pelicans. But knowing them, they'd chase Amen Thompson so they could add another non-shooter to their core. There's room to quibble over the particulars, but the idea of slotting Murphy next to Kevin Durant, Fred VanVleet, Alperen Sengün and some combination of Tari Eason (restricted free agent) and Reed Sheppard feels pretty potent.
The Rockets' No. 7 ranking in offensive efficiency is misleading; they depended on offensive boards to get there and only posted the No. 17 effective field-goal percentage in the league.
Murphy could be the pressure-release valve Houston's attack needs—a dead-eye shooter who could also punish scrambled closeouts with athletic drives to the hole.
Indiana Pacers: Kevin Porter Jr.
12 of 30
The Pacers are less than $1 million from the tax, and their willingness to go into it will dictate whether they do anything on the trade market. That said, they've got close to $14 million in matching salary between Jarace Walker and Ben Sheppard, two players who may no longer be viewed as core pieces.
Maybe the rebuilding Bucks, following a Giannis trade and a Kevin Porter Jr. opt-in, would want a shot at two rookie-scale players who might still have the ability to reach starter status someday.
KPJ would address the scoring void left on the wing by Bennedict Mathurin's departure while also ensuring TJ McConnell isn't the only shot-creator coming off the bench. Porter Jr. could ruin all this by declining his $5.4 million option to hit free agency, but there's no denying the fit of his 17.4 points and 7.4 assists per game with the Pacers.
LA Clippers: Four Future Firsts
13 of 30
It would be easy enough to net a pair of firsts by moving the No. 5 pick, which is something many believe the LA Clippers will consider, per Jake Fischer of The Stein Line. But a real rebuild with Darius Garland at the center of it would look a lot more appealing with a quartet of future draft assets involved.
A deal that returns three firsts might need to include Kawhi Leonard along with the No. 5 pick, and it's not all that easy to see a team whose timeline would accommodate both of those assets.
That probably means a three- or four-team construction is necessary, but the Clips have nearly $25 million in cap space to facilitate uneven-salary trades if necessary. Basically, the only thing preventing an aggressive, creative Clippers offseason in which they reload for the future is the organization's willingness to leave the previous era (read: Kawhi) behind.
Los Angeles Lakers: Aaron Gordon
14 of 30
The Los Angeles Lakers can sign two free-agent starters with their $52 million in cap space, but the wiser move might be to sign one and use the balance to take on a bigger salary in trade before re-upping with Austin Reaves on a deal worth more than $200 million.
Depending on how many players' rights they're willing to renounce, the Lakers could flip someone like Jarred Vanderbilt for a much more expensive option like Aaron Gordon. Health concerns abound, but Gordon's defensive versatility and shooting make him an ideal support piece for Luka Dončić.
We're talking about ambitious plans here, but it's actually not all that far-fetched to imagine Los Angeles opening the 2026-27 season with Reaves, Dončić, Gordon and restricted free agent Walker Kessler in the starting lineup.
LeBron James' future hangs over all of this. Many of the Lakers' most exciting routes either include him leaving or accepting a dramatic salary reduction to stick around. In many ways, he still has significant control over the Lakers' future.
Memphis Grizzlies: One Unprotected First-Round Pick
15 of 30
Brian Windhorst of ESPN reported in February that Ja Morant was viewed as a negative value around the league, and it's hard to see any reason for that to be different today.
Morant hasn't played a game since that assessment, which means he hasn't done anything to shake the notion that he's a malcontent in physical decline—one owed $87 million over the next two seasons.
This is what makes the Memphis Grizzlies targeting an unprotected future first-rounder so bold. During the last transactional window, Memphis didn't deal Morant because it would have had to include its own draft assets in the trade as sweeteners. The idea of the Grizzlies getting an unprotected first-rounder, however distant, would be a remarkable reversal.
Aim high.
Miami Heat: Giannis Antetokounmpo
16 of 30
Even if the Miami Heat are emerging as front-runners in the latest (and let's hope final) edition of the Giannis Antetokounmpo sweepstakes, history suggests there's no such thing as certainty when it comes to deals of this magnitude.
Antetokounmpo is on everyone's list, and his ability to hit free agency in 2027 gives him significant control over his destination. If he doesn't like a particular suitor, all he has to do is say he won't sign a new deal after being traded.
At the same time, the Milwaukee Bucks aren't under any official obligation to send Antetokounmpo wherever he wants. They need to stay self-interested by targeting the best return they can. That wrinkle is why the Heat can't treat the Giannis acquisition as if it's a done deal.
It's also why landing Antetokounmpo still counts as wildly ambitious. I mean, what else would you even call the pursuit of a two-time MVP?
Milwaukee Bucks: The Portland Picks and More
17 of 30
The Bucks need two types of assets to give their post-Giannis era a little optimism: their own future first-rounders back and a young player with the potential to become a cornerstone.
These are not mutually exclusive.
The Portland Trail Blazers control Milwaukee's 2028, 2029 and 2030 first-rounders. Though they're not a realistic Giannis destination, Milwaukee needs to do everything possible to loop them in somehow. It's probably not realistic to regain control of all three firsts, but one or two would create desperately needed optionality for the Bucks.
If it's possible to pull that off while also netting someone with as high a profile as Evan Mobley, well...that's basically a perfect trade.
Minnesota Timberwolves: Derrick White
18 of 30
Derrick White's shooting was a problem this season, when he made just 32.7 percent of his threes after canning at least 38.1 percent in each of the previous three years. The playoffs brought no end to the drought, as the 31-year-old made just 27.3 percent across seven games.
The Wolves should hope that's all anyone remembers about White's campaign.
Quietly, and even when factoring in his shooting struggles, White's 2025-26 was arguably his best season. The catch-all metrics adored what he did defensively and highly prized the spikes in his block, assist and rebound rates. White's Estimated Wins, a cumulative stat, ranked seventh in the NBA, right behind Kawhi Leonard and immediately ahead of Donovan Mitchell.
Minnesota will likely retain trade acquisition Ayo Dosunmu, but he's more of a high-end bench weapon than a championship-tested starter whose value might be irrationally deflated at the moment.
New Orleans Pelicans: Myles Turner
19 of 30
Myles Turner made sense for the New Orleans Pelicans long before he went from the Indiana Pacers to the Milwaukee Bucks. In fact, his name's been coming up as a logical spacing counterpart from the moment the Pels landed Zion Williamson in the 2019 draft.
Why stop now?
Derik Queen comes with shooting weaknesses much like Williamson's, so Turner would work just as well next to him. Better still for the Pelicans, Milwaukee could be convinced to move on from Turner cheaply once Giannis Antetokounmpo is gone and a full rebuild begins. Even in a tough season that saw his role diminish as he appeared in few meaningful games, Turner hit 38.3 percent of his triples and blocked 1.6 shots per game with the Bucks.
That'll certainly play in New Orleans.
New York Knicks: Multiple First-Rounders
20 of 30
As long as the New York Knicks pay what it costs to retain Mitchell Robinson and Landry Shamet in free agency using Bird rights and early Bird rights, respectively, the team's top nine rotation players will all be back.
Given the success that group produced, messing with the mix should be almost entirely forbidden.
How about a creative alternative in which the Knicks follow the Phoenix Suns' blueprint?
Though it's generally best not to emulate the Suns' transactional model, you've got to see the appeal in turning one of the Knicks' few first-round picks into several.
In January of 2025, the Suns sent their 2031 unprotected first-round pick to the Utah Jazz for three "least favorable" firsts in 2025, 2027 and 2029. This basically guaranteed the Suns' incoming selections would land in the 20s, but it gave them three assets to use in trades.
The Knicks could use either the No. 24 pick in the 2026 draft or their 2033 first-rounder in a similar way.
Oklahoma City Thunder: Trey Murphy III
21 of 30
The Oklahoma City Thunder's first priority should be retaining their own talent this offseason, chiefly by declining team options and reworking deals for Isaiah Hartenstein and Lu Dort. Hang onto those two, get better health luck from Ajay Mitchell and Jalen Williams, and OKC will be right back atop the list of first-tier contenders.
If the Thunder do look outside the organization for upgrades, they need to target high-volume three-point shooters on the wing. Apparently, Isaiah Joe didn't have enough size or defensive reliability to crack OKC's postseason rotation, so any addition needs to check those boxes.
Trey Murphy III is a 38.2 percent career three-point shooter on 6.7 attempts per game, but his volume has trended up across each of his five seasons. Though not known for his defense, his 6'8" size at least gives him the advantage of length. Plus, it's fair to assume Murphy would bring his absolute best effort once freed from a losing environment in New Orleans.
Orlando Magic: Isaiah Joe
22 of 30
We just invoked Isaiah Joe's name in the OKC section, but he doesn't land here as an Orlando Magic trade target just because he's top of mind.
Joe is a career 40.6 percent three-point shooter, and his ability to fly off screens and terrify defenses with his deep range is exactly the kind of boost the Magic's offense needs.
With Jalen Suggs and Anthony Black capable of guarding whichever backcourt opponent is most threatening, Joe's middling defense wouldn't matter much. Joe wasn't enough of a two-way player to crack Oklahoma City's postseason rotation in the later rounds, but that's a high bar to clear. All the Magic need him to do is be himself: a lights-out shooter who'll take a charge but needs some defensive support.
Philadelphia 76ers: Jimmy Butler
23 of 30
Jimmy Butler tore his ACL this past January and might not play again until after the calendar flips to 2027, but it'd almost certainly be a good sign for the Philadelphia 76ers if he returned for a second tour of duty.
That's because Butler would only wind up in Philly as matching salary in a trade that offloaded either Paul George or Joel Embiid on the Golden State Warriors. And while Butler might only provide half a season's worth of production as he tries to rehab his value ahead of free agency, that'd still be preferable to dealing with the remaining years and dollars on the Sixers' two highest-paid players' contracts.
Not only that, but it's likely Philadelphia could get some draft compensation attached to Butler in a deal for George. If Embiid is the outgoing salary, that might be tougher to achieve. Either way, turning one of those two into Butler's expiring deal would allow the Sixers to unload a metric ton of bad salary.
Phoenix Suns: Ja Morant
24 of 30
Everyone understands the risks of taking on Ja Morant, a player whose star has dimmed considerably over the last several seasons as injuries, suspensions and physical decline reduced his playing time and limited his effectiveness.
The Phoenix Suns, who need a lead guard to take the playmaking pressure off of Devin Booker, should still have some level of interest in what might be a massive buy-low opportunity.
Morant is only 27, might be merely a change of scenery away from regaining his form and shouldn't come at a high cost. His two years and $87 million might be gettable for matching salary alone, and it's even possible the Grizzlies would attach a pick to move their former cornerstone.
If you told the Suns it'd only take matching salary to acquire a player who put up 19.5 points and 8.1 assists in 20 games last season, they'd jump at it.
Portland Trail Blazers: Zach LaVine
25 of 30
The Portland Trail Blazers ranked in the top five in three-point attempt frequency this past season, which suggests they're doing a lot of things right on offense from a process standpoint.
The results, which include a bottom-five long-range accuracy mark, just haven't been there.
That means any target has to be a deadeye shooter comfortable getting up tons of attempts. The return of Damian Lillard will help, but the Blazers still need more marksmanship on the wing.
Zach LaVine is not a defender or reliable setup man, but he's at 39.1 percent from long range for his career and is on an expiring $49 million contract (assuming he picks up his player option). So in addition to providing the deep shooting Portland's offense needs, LaVine could also be a way to get off of Jerami Grant's contract via trade. That's not a bad two-for-one.
Sacramento Kings: Michael Porter Jr.
26 of 30
If the Sacramento Kings wind up with Michael Porter Jr., it probably means they managed to trade Domantas Sabonis.
Such a deal would save the Kings about $5 million this season and another $49 million in 2027-28, a financial boon that might also come with a low-end draft asset from the Nets.
A lot of the thinking here is tied to Brooklyn wanting to raise its floor during a 2026-27 season in which it lacks control of its first-rounder. Sabonis is an offensive hub who'd lighten the playmaking load on the bevy of young guards Brooklyn drafted last June. If he upped his three-point volume, he could even play next to Nic Claxton, who'd handle the defensive work.
Sacramento needs a cornerstone desperately, and MPJ isn't that player. But the cash savings, potential to add some draft capital and opportunity to build a defensive identity sans Sabonis are all valuable.
San Antonio Spurs: Aaron Gordon
27 of 30
Quietly, Aaron Gordon used the last couple of seasons to solidify himself as a legitimately good three-point shooter, hitting 43.6 percent of his treys in 2024-25 and 38.9 percent this past season.
Yes, he comes with major health concerns after losing so much time to hamstring injuries over the last 24 months. And yes, he's an athletic player on the wrong side of 30.
Move past those concerns and try to appreciate how perfect he'd be in the San Antonio Spurs' starting and closing lineups.
Gordon has excelled as a small-ball center for the Nuggets, can defend five positions, has championship experience and would offer substantially more two-way versatility than Julian Champagnie, Harrison Barnes, Keldon Johnson or anyone else who's occupied a forward spot for the Spurs.
San Antonio is good enough to do nothing at all and stay a contender for the foreseeable future. But adding Gordon would bring new dimensions and, perhaps, an even higher ceiling.
Toronto Raptors: Devin Booker
28 of 30
We're going way off the map on this one, as Devin Booker seems entrenched in Phoenix and has basically never been linked to the Toronto Raptors in any serious way.
You've got to admit the fit is pretty interesting, though.
Phoenix might secretly want to be free of its massive financial commitment to Booker, who'll average well north of $60 million per year through 2029-30, and the Raptors might determine the offensive boost he'd provide is worth that money.
Booker's presence as a No. 1 option would slot Scottie Barnes into a more appropriate second-star role (at least on offense; he's tops on D) while adding shot creation to an attack that needs it. If Immanuel Quickley doesn't go out in this hypothetical deal, the Raps would have a dangerous backcourt with enough shooting and playmaking to make their excellent defense count for something.
Utah Jazz: Cason Wallace
29 of 30
Lu Dort would be the easy choice if the Utah Jazz want to add some point-of-attack and off-ball defensive excellence on the wing. He's due to make $18.5 million if the Thunder pick up their team option and would be eminently gettable as OKC looks to clean up its books.
Cason Wallace is far bolder, so he's the pick.
Younger, better on offense and still cheap at $7.4 million, Wallace would be an ideal fit next to Keyonte George, Ace Bailey and whoever Utah grabs at No. 2 in the draft. His ball-hawking defense, spot-up shooting and potentially underutilized on-ball game would all fill needs in a backcourt and wing rotation that is light on those qualities.
Wallace is extension eligible, and Utah already has a ton of cash committed to Jaren Jackson Jr. and Lauri Markkanen. We'll let the front office worry about solving this very good financial problem after landing Wallace.
Washington Wizards: Darryn Peterson and Ace Bailey
30 of 30
Why not close this out with a pair of targets for the Washington Wizards, both of whom could be acquired for the low, low price of the No. 1 overall pick in the 2026 draft?
Hypothetically, the Wizards may see no real difference between projected top selection AJ Dybantsa and Darryn Peterson. If that's the case, and if the Jazz feel very differently, maybe it'd be possible to snag Ace Bailey from Utah along with the No. 2 selection.
Bailey and Dybantsa might be a bit duplicative in Utah, even if drafting for fit and need is generally a bad idea. But it's also possible that the Jazz view Dybantsa as a player entirely in his own tier and would be willing to pay a premium to get him.
Deals similar to this aren't unheard of. Remember when the Celtics extracted a future first and the No. 3 pick, landing Jayson Tatum, for the top pick that became Markelle Fultz? The asset exchange is pretty similar here. All it'd take is a difference of opinion on the value of No. 1 for Washington to emerge with two blue-chip prospects.
