Miami guard Isaiah Wong has spoken out about the rumors involving him threatening to enter the transfer portal if his NIL desires are not met.
On Friday, Wong’s agent Adam Papas spoke with ESPN about the guard’s desire to earn more money with NIL deals. Wong entered the NBA draft earlier this week, with the option of withdrawing and returning to college, but Papas said if the guard’s NIL compensation wasn’t increased, he would additionally enter the transfer portal. Wong was not quoted on Friday.
This lead Wong to post a statement on Twitter Friday night stating that Papas’ comments were not approved by Wong ahead of time, and that they were essentially false.
