Bobby Marks: Here are the financials (starting in 2025-26) To New Orleans Jordan Poole: $31.8M, $34M, UFA 2027 * $4.25M in unlikely bonuses that count toward the apron Saddiq Bey: $6.2M, $6.5M, UFA 2027 * $333K in unlikely bonuses that count toward the apron To Washington CJ McCollum: $30.7M, UFA 2026 Kelly Olynyk: $13.4M, UFA 2026 -via x.com / June 24, 2025
Shams Charania: The trade swaps guards — the Wizards shifting from Poole to the veteran in McCollum, who has an expiring contract. Washington now is expected to approach $100 million in projected cap space in 2026. Pelicans move younger, possibly more dynamic with Poole and Bey. -via x.com / June 24, 2025
