Thabeet Becomes Highest Pick Ever Assigned to D-League

Filed under: Grizzlies, D-League

Hasheem Thabeet, the second overall pick in the NBA Draft, selected ahead of Tyreke Evans, Stephen Curry, and about twenty other rookies getting significant minutes, has been assigned to the D-League. D-League blog Ridiculous Upside was the first to break the story.

Thabeet is the highest draft pick ever to be assigned to the D-League. Thabeet will be with the Dakota Wizards for ten days, logging a handful of games.

He's been told to work on his offensive skills. Which is a little bit like sending someone to Betty Ford and saying, "Oh, and you should work on NOT having substance abuse problems." It's kind of obvious from the fact they woke up naked on the hood of their car.
