The news of the Washington Wizards firing General Manager Tommy Sheppard is sinking in. Now, the hard work begins. First, who could the Wizards bring in to replace him? And after that, would that new GM stay the course or begin a rebuild that many fans wanted for some time?
Before this news, all directions were pointing to a summer where Kyle Kuzma and Kristaps Porzingis would be the Wizards’ top re-signing priorities. If they sign with the Wizards, that would commit the team to them as well as franchise guard Bradley Beal who is entering the second year of his supermax contract.
