Avdija, a 6-foot-9 forward drafted ninth overall in 2020, is coming off a career season in which he averaged 14.7 points and 7.2 rebounds while shooting 37.4% from 3-point range. His improvement was a bright for the otherwise struggling Wizards, and it earned him a sixth-place finish in Kia Most Improved Player voting.
Avdija signed a reported four-year, $55-million contract extension with the Wizards last October and is under contract through the 2027-28 season.
Portland sheds some of its surplus of draft picks while adding a 23-year-old rotation player to its post-Damian Lillard era. The Blazers finished the 2023-24 season with a 21-61 record and hold the seventh overall pick in the 2024 NBA Draft.
Meanwhile Washington further resets its own roster ahead of using the No. 2 overall pick in Wednesday’s draft. Brogdon, a veteran guard on an expiring contract, could remain to help guide a young Wizards squad or be involved in another trade.
