The last time we saw Khris Middleton, he was playing for the Washington Wizards, but he only participated in 14 games with them last season after being traded by the Milwaukee Bucks.
Will he be with them when the new season begins in a few months?
According to Bovada, per NBACentral, the Phoenix Suns are the favorites to be Middleton’s next team.
They have +300 odds, followed by the Detroit Pistons and Los Angeles Lakers with +600.
After that, it’s the Miami Heat, Denver Nuggets, Los Angeles Clippers, Milwaukee Bucks, New York Knicks, and San Antonio Spurs in the mix.
Where is Middleton going to land?

There is a chance that he plays the whole season with the Wizards, but there is also a strong possibility that he moves to another team.
Recent reporting has said the Wizards don’t envision Middleton as part of their long-term plans.
They are happy to have him and think he can help young players in the lineup with his experience and expertise.
However, the Wizards don’t feel that Middleton will be a crucial part of their future.
That means they will be open to letting him go, and Middleton clearly has options.
All of the teams listed above could benefit from Middleton’s years of experience, and they would keep their expectations in check because he doesn’t play like he used to.
For the right price, he would be a smart fit for all of these squads.
Plus, a few of them could give him a chance to earn one more title before retiring.
