The Wizards have made a decision about their future general manager, promoting interim Tommy Sheppard to the position full time, Candace Buckner of The Washington Post reports.
Sheppard, who will be entering his 17th season with the franchise, was named the interim back in April when the team fired long-time GM Ernie Grunfeld in a move that was met positively by many fans.
After Grunfeld was fired, Washington was linked to Raptors president of basketball operations Masai Ujiri, but the team eventually decided to not fill the role before the start of free agency.
