Evan Sidery(@esidery):Although Trae Young declined his $49 million player option with the Wizards, the full expectation is for a long-term agreement to happen at a cheaper annual salary. Young’s camp and Washington have been discussing a three-year deal that would pay him around $40 million per year.
