Locked On Wizards is your go-to daily podcast for everything Washington Wizards, and in this episode, hosts Ben Strober and Abdullah Ayubi dive deep into the Wizards’ latest bold move — trading two second-round picks to acquire explosive young wing Cam Whitmore from the Houston Rockets. Ben and Abdullah break down what this deal means for the Wizards’ ongoing rebuild and debate whether this low-risk, high-upside move signals a shift in Washington's long-term strategy.

Was this a steal for the Wizards, or are there hidden concerns about Whitmore’s fit and development? The hosts analyze his strengths — athleticism, shot creation, and defensive tools — while also considering how he fits into Brian Keefe’s system and the young core of players like Bilal Coulibaly, Tre Johnson, and Alex Sarr.
