Portis is. It sure looked like he said that Portis was the only player he would consider trading Dunn for.

His post was about trading Dunn for Giannis. Which makes more sense given the context.

Yes. I see that now. Don’t know why I misread it like that.

Think you're wrong on when he re-signed. From what I've found he resigned June 29th, so the last day eligible before free agency opened up. He signed a 2 year deal that is only guaranteed for $250k in year 2, so basically nothing. It was a $25m over 2 years and he's making $12.65 this season and if he were retained he'd make $13.28 million. Sounds like the $250k is sort of splitting the difference, if the deal didn't have raises and was flat. He's not playing for Washington. I'd guess they didn't know they'd get Jonas Valanciunas so Holmes was insurance while also being trade bait. He's essentially an expiring contract because no one will let a 250k cap hit get in their way.
I can't find any preseason stats or injury information for him. I imagine he's just hanging back and getting paid. We should see him moved eventually.
Info on the extension is in this article.
NBA 2024 Offseason Check-In: Washington Wizards
We examine the Wizards' offseason so far and consider what's next in Washington.www.hoopsrumors.com
That matches what BBReference has as well.
I guess he did play in the preseason. Can't find much of any information but he's listed here on a Wizards fan site, like Bright Side, as the leader in preseason PPA. What PPA is, I'm not sure. However he did play so that's some of the puzzle solved.
Analyzing the Wizards’ 2024-25 preseason by the numbers
Now that the preseason is over, let’s break down how the Wizards did statisticallywww.bulletsforever.com
The February date is probably when Holmes was traded to the Wizards, not the extension date. I guess I used that date because it came to mind.
When Holmes signed the extension with the Wizards is not of much importance to me, except for when he is eligible to be traded.
I was looking at players that might help the Suns, not just him.
He probably could be had for second round picks, but I couldn't find a salary that would work except for Allen and I wouldn't trade him for Holmes.

The Celtics and Hornets had a volatile game on Friday. See the foul on Grant Williams.

Nuggets and Wolves playing an entertaining game. Very chippy. Murray concussed, Gobert has a flagrant and a tech.

Russell Westbrook is now 11/45 from the field to begin this season.That's 24.4%, by far the worst in the NBA with at least 40 shot attempts.Nuggets are -51 with him on the floor

That's one hell of a slanted comment about a strong play ruined by his post-play antics. They left out the fact that number 0 clearly, and unnecessarily, initiated contact with Gobert after the play while taunting Gobert.

I wouldn’t call that “swinging.” Also, Braun should’ve gotten a tech for what he did right after the dunk.
He did. Both players in the wrong imo.
