The NBA Draft is an exhausting experience for players, but also for team executives. Rich Cho exemplified that during Friday’s draft pick unveiling, when he inadvertently referred to Charlotte Hornets second round pick Dwayne Bacon as, “Dwayne Wade.” Cho quickly corrected himself as the room erupted in laughter, then later on when asked whether Bacon shared any similarities to Wade, one of Bacon or Malik Monk whispered “he’s better” into the mic.
The full exchanged echoed the rest of the press conference, where both players looked relaxed and enjoying themselves as they answered questions from the Charlotte media.
