According to HoopsHype reporter Michael Scotto, the Washington Wizards have cut Blake Wesley, the 2022 first round No. 25 Blake Wesley. He then updated the news. According to Scotto's new statement, Wesley reached a buyout agreement with the Wizards, which is also to allow the former Spurs first-round pick to become a free agent. He is expected to win a new role in other teams.
In the NBA regular season last season, Wesley played 58 games for the San Antonio Spurs, averaging 11.8 minutes per game, averaging 3.7 points, 1.1 rebounds, 2 assists, 0.6 steals, and 0.1 blocks, and 0.9 turnovers and 0.8 fouls. His shooting percentage was 43.5%, a three-point shooting percentage of 29.5%, and a free throw shooting percentage of 62.3%. Wesley did not get more playing time and performance opportunities last season, and he could not hold a solid position in a rotation lineup. In fact, his performance on the court is also very average. His performance in scoring is not ideal, and his offensive efficiency and three-point shooting percentage are even more terrible.
From the perspective of characteristics, Wesley has very good defensive ability. His single defense ability is very good, with extremely high defensive enthusiasm and excellent defensive attitude. If he can improve his defensive experience and defensive awareness, he will become a very good outside defender. However, on the other hand, Wesley's performance on the offensive end is simply terrible. He lacks basic scoring and shooting ability. He also has obvious problems in offensive choices. His skills seem a bit rough. The biggest problem is that he has been in the NBA for 3 years. His abilities and his performance on the court seem to be no essential difference from his rookie season, which will also make everyone very worried about his potential and future development.
According to previous news, the Wizards completed a deal with the Spurs. The Wizards traded Kelly Olynyk to the Spurs, and exchanged the Spurs for Wesley, Malaki Branham and a 2026 second round pick (from the Dallas Mavericks, Philadelphia 76ers and the Oklahoma City Thunder with the lowest pick). I thought joining the Wizards might be a chance for Wesley, or even a potential turnaround in his career, but the situation was not the case. It can even be said that there was a greater crisis in his career. I don’t know how the situation will develop next. Wesley is also a young player with great potential. Which team will he sign with next?
