It would be a great trade for both sides, maybe we're just not used to making trades that actually make sense for us in recent years.

He was a top 10 scorer in the league... Last year. He is a great player that had an unbelievable season.
I doubt many, if anyone, around the league sees him as a perennial top 10 scorer in the league. He beat his previous best season by 19 points. And that was 7 years prior.

The trade does make sense, but Washington really wouldn't want to lose defensive depth I assume to add scoring. I think they will look elsewhere.
