The Wizards fired GM Tommy Sheppard after the team missed the playoffs each of the past two seasons while posting identical 35-47 records.
Why Knicks being in the playoffs is always dream scenario for the NBA
The Wizards fired general manager Tommy Sheppard on Wednesday after the team missed the postseason for a second consecutive season. Sheppard’s dismissal comes less than two years after he received a contract extension in November 2021. Washington went 35-47 in 2021-22 and then posted the same record this season.
The Wizards signed star guard Bradley Beal to a max-value contract last offseason, but the team still didn’t show any clear improvement. Early last week, Sheppard met with reporters to wrap up the season. After about a half hour of fielding questions, he was asked if he’d officially met with Leonsis to confirm that he’d be back. He seemed surprised at the question.Sheppard said that day that the team hoped to bring back Kristaps Porzingis and Kyle Kuzma, both of whom have player options.
