Hip stretch in the first game! Lost by 27 points on the court! No wonder you were abandoned by the Rockets, this is the reason

At the end of the game, the score between the two teams was finally fixed at 112-113. The Washington Wizards lost to the Toronto Raptors by one point at home and suffered a bad start! It is particularly worth mentioning that the Washington Wizards led the Toronto Raptors by 1 point with 0.8 seconds left in the game. But then a magical scene happened. Raptors center Olivier Sarr received a sideline ball from his teammate and completed a super layup in the air. Then the ball went in and the lights turned on, and the game was sealed. At this point, the Toronto Raptors have completed their buzzer-beating victory over the Washington Wizards!

So, who is the big man who beat the Washington Wizards with an alley-oop? Naturally, he is not well-known because of his non-draft background, but his younger brother is the famous No. 2 pick in the 2024 NBA class: Alex Sarr. In this campaign, Olivier Sarr did not score much, only 4 points plus 4 rebounds and 3 blocks, but his last two points directly killed the game. Alex Sarr scored 12 points, 8 rebounds and 2 blocks. He won the data but lost the game.

Frankly speaking, it is not surprising that the Eastern Conference's super weak Washington Wizards lost, even if they were killed in the last 0.8 seconds, it was not surprising! Because in the past few years, the Washington Wizards have won less and lost more in almost every season, and losing is almost the norm in their games.

In this preseason game with an insignificant result, former Rockets player Whitmore, who made his Wizards career debut, once again played the "flavor" of the game that fans are familiar with! In this campaign, Whitmore, who represented the new club Wizards for the first time, played 16 minutes as a substitute. He made 4 of 7 shots, 1 of 1 three-pointers, 1 of 1 free throw, and scored 10 points, 1 rebound, and 1 block.

At first glance, Bai Mo’s personal data seems pretty good, even giving people the illusion of efficiency! As everyone knows, his debut performance was very awkward, even a disaster. Because Whitmore's plus-minus value in this game is a super eye-catching -27, this means that when he is on the court, the Washington Wizards lose to the Toronto Raptors by as many as 27 points.

It is no exaggeration to say that Whitmore's crotch-stretching performance in her first show was truly unbearable! In 16 minutes on the court, the plus-minus value could reach -27. This is definitely a disaster scene. You must know that the Wizards only lost to the Raptors by 1 point in the end. The comparison before and after is simply shocking! But that's all Whitmore's Wizards debut was all about, and he showed such a hip-stretching debut performance to his new club, the Wizards.

This summer, in a three-way deal involving the New Orleans Pelicans and the Washington Wizards, the Houston Rockets sent Whitmore, the No. 20 pick in the first round of 2023, to the Washington Wizards at a bargain price, in exchange for only two second-round picks. At that time, many people didn't understand why the Rockets sold Whitmore at a low price! After all, he is also a talented No. 20 pick in the first round. After all, he has to be exchanged for the last pick in the first round, right? But the Rockets did not insist on doing this, and instead sent him to the Washington Wizards, which was conducive to the development of his career.

Now it seems that there was nothing wrong with the Rockets selling Whitmore at a low price! Because this young man with super athletic ability cannot truly realize his basketball talent, Whitmore, who has been in the league for two years, still cannot find the correct sense of position on the court, and random hits have become the norm in his game.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Wizards' crotch-stretching performance in the Wizards' debut is almost a microcosm of Whitmore's career so far. Otherwise, he won't be cruelly abandoned by the Rockets this summer! What do you think about this?
