Something about Ace Bailey’s post-draft interview didn’t sit right. While other top picks celebrated with their families on ESPN’s broadcast, the Rutgers star faced Monica McNutt alone—and he didn’t seem happy about it.
Here’s what made it awkward: His parents were right there in the building, yet for some reason they weren’t brought out for the interview. That’s the whole point of draft night – sharing that special moment with the people who helped you get there. Seeing Bailey up there by himself while everyone else had their loved ones? That just didn’t sit right.
Was it a production mix-up? An agent issue? Nobody’s saying yet. But watching Bailey stand there solo while other draftees hugged their parents? That’s not how this script was supposed to go. Here’s hoping his NBA journey gets brighter from here.
