WASHINGTON — The Washington Wizards’ deconstruction and metamorphosis into one of the league’s youngest teams is almost complete.

But Kuzma has taken quite a dive this year. He’s hit a career-low 28.1 percent from three and 42 percent from the field. He’s down from 22.2 ppg to 15.2. Bleh. He’s got over $40 million left on his deal through 2027, while Middleton has a player option for 2025-26.

The Washington Wizards traded forward Kyle Kuzma to the Milwaukee Bucks in exchange for Khris Middleton and a 2028 first-round pick swap Wednesday, a person with knowledge of the deal confirmed. ESPN first reported the deal.
