Washington Wizards Worked Out NBA Bust Hasheem Thabeet In September
Washington Wizards recently worked out Hasheem Thabeet, who was picked second overall in the 2009 NBA Draft by the Memphis Grizzlies.
Hasheem Thabeet was picked second overall by the Memphis Grizzlies in 2009. He’s played for seven different professional teams since; some in the NBA and some in the NBA Developmental League.
A shot blocking machine with the University of Connecticut, Thabeet seemed to have all the potential to become an elite defensive player at the next level. The Grizzlies, who’ve since become known for their bruising style of play, were a perfect fit for the 7-foot-3 Tanzanian center.
