Ace Bailey Canceled Sixers Workout
Published:
Here we are just trying to have a nice and quiet Juneteenth:
Dunno man. Everything with this guy seems to suggest that the Sixers should steer clear and just pick someone else, or trade the pick and move back. At the same time, does the private workout really matter? Not much. Rutgers is right up the road. The Sixers scouted Bailey like they scouted everyone else and they know what he is as a prospect. Visiting Camden and doing a workout isn’t going to make or break anything. But the handling of the pre-draft stuff is outrageous, like he’s getting the world’s worst advice and/or he sees himself getting up 20 shots a night on a crap team like the Wizards and/or is trying to carve out a very specific path here. And scheduling and canceling at the last minute is straight-up unprofessional. Whatever the case, there are enough red flags to justify removing him from the board.
