Washington Wizards president Michael Winger told Jake Fischer of The People's Insider that he would consider trading down after securing the No. 1 pick in the NBA Draft on Sunday. Winger said that this is not a savior moment for the Wizards. The Wizards are currently projected to select AJ Dybantsa with the No. 1 pick. Winger added the Wizards could move down should he and general manager Will Dawkins determine that there are two or three prospects worth drafting.
