The Washington Wizards are shopping center JaVale McGee but are looking for a strong return, reports Yahoo!'s Marc Spears. McGee is an interesting case as he'll be a restricted free agent on July 1, eligible for a fat new contract. While whichever team employs him on Friday -- once the trade deadline has passed -- will have the right of first refusal, it's expected that McGee's new annual salary will reach eight figures. The comparable DeAndre Jordan makes $11 million per season on average after his foray into restricted free agency in December; McGee is actually more productive.
