The Wizards turned the NBA’s least valuable deal into one of the league’s deepest rosters and unlikeliest playoff contenders. It took less than a year. Here's how they pulled it off.

At this time last year in the nation’s capital, there was at least one area of bipartisan agreement: The worst contract in the NBA belonged to the Washington Wizards.

The cold truth of NBA roster construction is that one deal can have disastrous consequences for many seasons to come. The value of a basketball player isn’t determined simply by how good he is, but also how much he’s paid, and the Wizards were paying too much for a player who wasn’t actually playing. It was a problem that didn’t seem to present a solution.
