General manager Landry Fields spoke publicly in advance of the 2023 NBA Draft today. He outlined some of the process of getting prospects into the practice facility, working them out, and interviewing them. It was clear from listening to his remarks that he intended on clarifying what obstacles can be present in this endeavor — as well as the fact that there are plenty of players who privately work out with the team that the public does not hear about in the moment.
He started his remarks by giving thanks to Dotun Akinwale, the Director of Player Personnel, for handling this moment with capability and professionalism.
