As of right now, the Washington Wizards have a complete roster. After acquiring Jared Dudley, Alan Anderson and Gary Neal through free agency, the Wizards also decided to bring back Garrett Temple (player option) and Drew Gooden.

Given that Washington has 15 players under contract — the maximum allowed on an NBA roster — their chances of re-signing free agent big man Kevin Seraphin don’t appear to be high. In fact, after the NBA Playoffs concluded, reports suggested that Seraphin was on his way out of the nation’s capital.

According to Yahoo!’s Marc J. Spears, however, the Wizards are one of a few teams that are interested in signing Seraphin:

The Wizards are over the cap and don’t want to get into the luxury tax.

With that said, Seraphin is expected to get a raise this summer. He opted for the qualifying offer last summer, which made him an unrestricted free agent this off-season. Washington does have Seraphin’s bird rights, but as I stated before they don’t want to get into the tax to keep a player with a full roster.

The other two teams mentioned — Los Angeles and Dallas — could certainly use Seraphin’s talents.

The Mavericks, in particular, could use Seraphin on their team after failing to secure a deal with DeAndre Jordan.

Event though they acquired Zaza Pachulia from the Milwaukee Bucks after the Jordan debacle, their front line is still thin.

They traded Brandan Wright this past season and don’t have a backup big yet.

Seraphin wants an opportunity to start, and while I don’t think he’ll start over Roy Hibbert in LA or Pachulia in Dallas, he could still get more minutes than he would in Washington.

The Wizards are looking to play more small-ball next season and Nene is expected to play the backup center position more than he regularly does. Seraphin’s playing time would get significantly cut as a result.

Instead of letting Seraphin walk without getting anything back in return, the Wizards will likely pursue a sign-and-trade just like they did with Trevor Ariza this past season. With a full roster, the Wizards won’t get a player in return, but they will get a trade exception back which they could use to obtain a player in the future.

For instance, the Wizards could sign-and-trade Seraphin to the Lakers for a large exception. If I had to guess, Seraphin will likely get a deal worth $7+ million annually.

Last season they obtained a similar exception in exchange for Trevor Ariza and used it to acquire Kris Humphries from the Boston Celtics. They also used a small trade exception to acquire DeJuan Blair.

Who could they acquire? Well, the first name that comes to mind is Phoenix’s Markieff Morris, who’s been linked to a number of rumors this off-season.

Morris would give the Wizards a starting option and he’d serve as the stretch four. His ability to space the floor and create for himself would take a lot of pressure off John Wall and Bradley Beal. Washington could also acquire a free agent with the trade exception by having the player’s original team work out a sign-and-trade, just like they did with Humphries and Boston.

Kevin Seraphin’s time in Washington will likely come to an end unless Ernie Grunfeld and Co. believe he’s a part of the team’s future. If that’s the case, they’ll have to find a deal for a player who’s already on their roster to create space.

Now that the big names are gone from free agency, players like Kevin Seraphin are going to look to find new NBA homes. Will it be in Washington? We’ll have to wait and see.
