[Wojnarowski] The Washington Wizards are hiring David Vanterpool as an assistant coach, sources tell ESPN. He’ll join Wes Unseld’s staff after stops with Brooklyn, Minnesota and Portland. A native of the Washington, DC-area, Vanterpool brings a strong background in player development.

   This is a back to back hiring of assistant coaches with the “strong background in player development” label assigned to them.

   But when I said yesterday that JD will, at a minimum, play out his rookie contract in DC because we’re now in *player development mode*, it was downvoted. Jeezus, how much do y’all hate JD in here? Lol
