Stackhouse: 'I wish I never played' for Wizards with Michael Jordan

Shouldn’t it be a dream for every basketball player to team up with the great Michael Jordan? Not if you’re Jerry Stackhouse.

On ESPN’s podcast “The Woj Pod” Wednesday, Stackhouse explained why his time playing for the Washington Wizards, including a season with Jordan, left him frustrated.

“Honestly, I wish I never played in Washington and for a number of reasons … It was really challenging to be able to be in a situation with an idol who at this particular point, I felt like I was a better player,” Stackhouse said.
