With statistics of 12.0 points, 7.3 assists and 1.1 steals, 49% shooting (including 41% from 3-point range) and 80% on free throws, he met expectations, while only losing one ball per game .

It will now be time for negotiations for the 28-year-old, since he will be free agent this summer, and therefore able to sign wherever he wants. It remains to be seen which team will obtain its favors but, what is whispered behind the scenes is that the leaders of Washington intend to keep it, as reported by Hoopshype.

Unless money, and the promise of a starting status, comes to counterbalance and work in favor of the capital's franchise…

Anything can happen, but my family and I love DC. We want to be here and I want to help this team move forward, move in the right direction. » he declared in any case, last month, in words loaded with meaning.
