The Washington Wizards’ second-round selection Tristan Vukvevic’s near future in the NBA may be uncertain but the Serbian big man has a lot of support from basketball royalty. In a fascinating article for NBC Sports Washington, Chase Hughes caught up with Vukcevic to discuss his basketball journey.
The 42nd-overall pick of the draft, the Serbian native spent last season with Partizan Belgrade after spending a few years with the Spanish giants Real Madrid. He has repeatedly expressed interest in playing for the Washington Wizards immediately, but his situation remains unclear.
The Wizards currently have 16 guaranteed contracts, as well as 2 two-way contracts.
