WCJ is one of the few starting centers in the league that can play defense and shoot the three. I dont really want the Magic to trade him, but any team looking to make an offer better pay up.

Yeah I’m not trying to move on from WCJ but if Hartenstein is coming then we should move off him EDIT: I will add that many Knicks fans aren’t too worried about losing him and they cite his rim protection as the main reason for it

I’m not sure what NOP have that I’d be willing to give up Dell for.

They may express interest in trading for him but I don’t think we have interest in trading him. Very unlikely we would completely overhaul the roster one year removed from 47 wins.

WCJ for Brandon Ingram or Trey Murphy even herb seems fair to me

It would have to be an incredible offer. Wendell Carter Jr.’s contract is extremely team friendly for the Magic since it was frontloaded.
Pelicans have been linked to literally every big man who’s even 1% available to be had on the trade market. This isn’t really news and we won’t be trading him unless there’s something else already in place that’s also an upgrade for us.
Best to ignore anything related to the Pels until they actually do it lol

I wouldn’t trade him just to trade him. WCJ is making less than MLE money, so his contract is really good. Even if we get ihart, WCJ can come off the bench if need to. Hartenstien/WCJ would be a good center rotation.

Trade him for Murray, we’ve got goga!

Wendell for McCollum

During the season and the playoffs this sub wanted Wendell sent to China, now sudden he’s untouchable.
Not saying we should move on from him, but the bipolar-ness of this sub is hysterical.

WCJ is set to make $11.9 million this upcoming season, and then $10.8 million next season. I’m not sure the Magic will be able to find a backup center for less than $11 million in 2025-26… let alone any Center as talented as WCJ who can start.

Doesn’t make sense for Magic to trade him at all.
