Washington Wizards: What happened to Isaac Bonga?

The Washington Wizards used to have a defensive stopper named Isaac Bonga. Remember that guy? Where’d he go?

If you watched any of the Washington Wizards’ first five games of the season, you likely saw a long-armed 6’8 forward running around on the wing, locking opponents up. He probably had a couple of deflections on the defensive end, even knocked down a three-pointer here and there. What was his name? Isaac Bonga? He was starting, right?

Right. Don’t let the latest disappearing act fool you. Isaac Bonga is still on the Washington Wizards roster, but far too often lately, he’s been stuck on the bench.
