The damage Dallas Mavericks center Daniel Gafford did to Washington on Monday night was no surprise to Wizards interim
head coach Brian Keefe.
Less than a week ago, Keefe was Gafford’s coach, and Gafford was overpowering opponents, snatching rebounds and blocking shots while manning the paint for the Wizards. But last Thursday the Mavs traded Richaun Holmes to the Wizards for Gafford, and now the five-year veteran is overpowering opponents, snatching rebounds and blocking shorts while manning the paint for Dallas.
“He had a terrific year for us,” Keefe said.
