We discussed all of this and more on the Bleav in Wizards podcast.
Jahadi White and I are back on the Bleav in Wizards podcast and we covered Evan Fournier turning down a two-year deal for mentoring the Wizards young players to go overseas, Jonas Valacuinas’s value as a trade asset, Brian Keefe’s recent comments on the Wizards and Bilal Coulibaly, Wizards assistant coaches taking G League jobs elsewhere, and Johnny Davis working out with Drew Hanlen.
We also discussed Rasheed Wallace saying Anthony Edwards isn’t better than Derrick McKey, Gilbert Arenas saying a player with 20 assists didn’t dominate a game, and Shaq saying Victor Wembanyama can’t be dominant shooting so many jumpers. We closed the show by discussing Kyle Kuzma’s comments about wanting to play for the Philippines if he never makes the Team USA roster.
