The Washington Wizards are trimming the fat. That’s because buyout agreements with guards Marcus Smart and Blake Wesley have reduced Washington’s cap figure by over $8 million, according to NBA cap insider Keith Smith of Spotrac.

The Wizards traded for Smart last season, and he, by all accounts, provided a positive example to the team’s younger players.

New Los Angeles Lakers guard Marcus Smart reportedly gave back $6.8 million in his buyout with the Washington Wizards.
