Man, I kind of feel bad for him, stuck on the worst team in the league and not even a starter for them.

I don’t see anyone trading for him either with the deal he signed. I always thought they had a wink wink deal there where he would start until eligible to be traded then Washington would move him.

The Wizards are playing their rookies. No surprise there. Jonas will be their best center with the best production anyways.

The Wizards are going to be a Trainwreck with that lineup though.

I’m sure Jonas knew this. Of course they are going to play their young talent and their top pick this year was a center. He will be a Laker as soon as he’s able to be traded.

Didn't he sell he house before he even signed with Washington? He's out of New Orleans and still getting paid. I'm sure he's fine

Maybe will trade for him to get him back at the trade deadline.

There's a reason that Washington has one of the worst teams in the league. They have not made wise decisions.

To be fair, all of Washington's starters actually had a worse +/- than -17.

Jonas was a freakin tank for us forever.. then we bench him for Larry freakin Nance when it matters, and tell him it's not gonna work out in the offseason..

He just signed his "frick everybody I'm getting mine" contract

He's probably hoping he can fake an injury and not do shite all year. Good for him

That’s good backup center money. I think a bunch of people would have signed him for that contract to come off the bench and score for us. Especially games Zion misses.

Remember Griff gave Steven Adams 17 a year years ago when the csp was smaller….

That's not Jonas' style at all. He suits up every night and earns his money.

It's definitely a hurricane (Jonas) crashing into a cold front (Wizards' culture of complete and utter apathy)

Perfect example of why the =/- stat can be so trash. Dude had a great game.

I usually don't subscribe to the not feeling sorry for someone because they're rich but Val legit chose that team knowing what was likely going to happen, a trainwreck.

There's not much to feel sorry for him about, to be honest.

He will be traded by the deadline.
