The Washington Wizards are headed in a new direction. Tuesday’s firing of longtime general manager Ernie Grunfeld confirmed that — with owner Ted Leonsis saying he was “hitting a reboot.”
As for what that direction will look like, well, even Bradley Beal is waiting to find out.
“That’s just my biggest and main concern,” Beal said. “Obviously, we’re going to be totally different next year. … We’ve got to balance it all, but first, we’ve got to find a guy who will get us right going forward.”
Leonsis reiterated Wednesday he would take his time in finding the team’s next general manager, opting to examine the organization’s culture first.
