[Hoop District] Wizards called Tyrese Haliburton at the 6th pick of the 2020 draft saying they were taking him at 9. At 8, they called back and said they were not anymore (with Deni Avdija still on the board) Hali after the second call: *exhales*, “Thank you God.”

I mean was Sacramento really a place to “thank you god” about? Not like Indiana is a great place to really live and they aren’t that great either. Honestly really depressing to be dissed like that lol
Will things ever get better, I don’t see it
In that same interview mentioned that he knew that we had John Wall, maybe he didn’t want to be stuck behind John Wall lol.
That’s rough. We were that close to an amazing draft pick. He would have been great here regardless of his feelings about the organization.
That is a pretty big dis. Sacramento sucks, both as a town and as a team (until super recently)
I mean, it’s not surprising, but still…. ☠️
When he says “thank you god” I think he meant that more bc the Wiz already had John Wall and his role would have been limited at that time. Am i reading that wrong?
