On Monday afternoon, Wizards president and general manager Tommy Sheppard spoke with the media ahead of Thursday night’s NBA Draft, the official starting point for the league’s short-burst season of significant roster movement. Free agency will begin just days after the dust settles on Thursday’s draft action. Sheppard spoke about the team’s preparation for the coming weeks, what Washington is looking for in incoming rookies, his expectations for trade activity on draft night and much more.
Monday’s media availability took place just after the Wizards’ final pre-draft workout, held on the game court at Capital One Arena, wrapping up three weeks of in-person drills and meetings with potential prospects.
