The Washington Wizards considered a much different deal involving Rui Hachimura before agreeing to a trade with the Los Angeles Lakers.
Yahoo Sports' Jake Fischer reported the Wizards were in negotiations with the Milwaukee Bucks and Phoenix Suns. Hachimura would've landed in Phoenix, with Jae Crowder going to the Bucks. The Wizards would've received three second-round picks and salary filler.
That would've provided a solution to Phoenix's Crowder conundrum.
The 32-year-old forward has yet to play this season as he and the Suns attempt to secure his exit in a trade.
