STACKED’s take

Negative signalValue

Hold Washington Jr. as leverage rather than selling him cheap to the starter's manager.

Trading Mike Washington Jr. to the Javonte Williams manager is a viable strategy, but holding him may be better until his value spikes if the starter misses time. He serves as valuable leverage, and managers should avoid selling him for less than his potential peak value.
