Read posts from yesterday.

Isn't a "No-Hub Coupling" a rubber coupling help together with clamps? Why can't I Glue in a PVC coupling?

Looks like turning the whole drain should allow it to connect. Seems like the easiest route to take.

You can cut out the old tee and glue in a new one.

You will need to carefully dry fit it first, to figure out the exact angle it needs to be turned, before gluing.

You can mark the angle on the tee and pipe stubs with lines from a Sharpie.

No hubs just give you the luxury of adjustment.

It's in... Thanks for all the help!!!

Cut it all off below the lower "T" and start over.

Just so you know, the trap arm for your washing machine drain is NOT long enough. It's a crown vent & water will be siphoned out of the trap & allow sewer gases to come up.
You can do a different configuration where you get a tailpiece with a diagonal upward branch for the dishwasher. Would love to see pics of how you got it installed.

How is the trap arm for my dishwasher drain is NOT long enough? How long does it have to be?

It's a dishwasher I think.

Yes, it's the dishwasher drain... But what's wrong with it? It's been this way since my house was built in 2002

She thought it was a washing machine.

The way you have it will work just fine. The only wrong thing was the band that you used. Should have been a
shielded band. If your not having anything inspected then let it go and enjoy your new sink.

Great sink for bathing an infant, or little doggie.

Looks mighty purdy.

It was needed... Here's the original set up

I have seen and owned much worse, haha.

Looks like you removed that goofy white caulking at the backsplash, good choice.
Don’t leave that gap open too long, or the substrate can suck up water and distort.

I want that faucet.
