Polarizing Reports On Shaedon Sharpe’s Pre-Draft Workouts

A month after the Portland Trail Blazers took Shaedon Sharpe with the seventh pick, scuttlebutt has surfaced surrounding the Canadian’s pre-draft workouts.

Bleacher Report’s Jake Fischer was joined by Sports Illustrated’s draft guru Jeremy Woo on the Please Don’t Aggregate This podcast to discuss how the 19-year-old was being perceived in lead up to the June 23 draft.

Both Fischer and Woo said they had no real idea where Sharpe might have been selected prior to the draft, particularly after the 19-year-old had reportedly underperformed in some workouts. Fischer also mentioned there were some reports suggesting Sharpe had “tanked” some of his pre-draft visits.
