The Wizards hope that Bailey s refusal to try out will make him lose the lead.
Today, 76ers Keith Pompey talked about Es Bailey's draft.
Keith Pompeyb said the Wizards hope that Pele would refuse to try before the draft and resulted in his overall pick decline. Sources revealed that the Wizards benefited through the same strategy last year, with French player Alex Saar refusing to try out for the Hawks, who had the No. 1 pick, and the Wizards finally selected him at the second pick.
The Wizards have been impressed by 18-year-old Bailey for a long time. Although his shooting choice at Rutgers was considered poor, the Wizards management was not worried. Some Wizards executives even thought Bailey was even better in high school than expected No. 1 Cooper Flag.
76ers consider draft options in the third pick: Es Bailey, VJ Edgecombe or others? The Wizards hope that Bailey can drop to their pick (sixth pick in the first round).
At this year's draft, the 76ers had the Tanhua lottery and the Wizards had the sixth pick in the first round.
