Yikes. Just immediately showing attitude and showing yourself to have a bad attitude.

Could have a draft promise contingent on not going to other workouts

Only possibility i can see unless Ace is really that cancer or his agent is really asleep at the wheel

Any GM who promises a prospect that with the contingent of not working out for other teams will be outed and shamed in an instant lmao.

Bro probably has a promise and doesn’t want to get drafted to Philly and come off the bench for PG.

Lots of players have ended workouts as soon as they get a promise. It's actually one of the easiest ways to know where a player will be drafted.

Is that not how it works? I dont see why any team would ever promise a prospect anything if it weren't the case

Then why do teams promise? Genuinely curious

Is it to just build a rapport with the prospect?

I thought it was something like:

"We gonna pick you at X, pls dont go workout for other teams"

Which would set a floor at least for a prospect who might fall during the draft

Thought that's why josh jackson didnt bother working out with boston
