Dominique Wilkins was MAD the Hawks traded him to the Clippers in 1994. Atlanta was one of the NBA’s best teams. The Clippers were among the worst. He called it the “most senseless trade I can imagine.”
Arriving in Los Angeles didn’t help his mood.
Wilkins on the “NBA Inside Stuff ’90s Reunion:"
This is one of the most disrespectful things I’ve ever heard!
The No. 16 overall pick from La Salle in the 1992 NBA Draft, Woods played sparingly his first season-and-a-half. A single minute was all Wood played against Wilkins’ Hawks before the trade.
Woods didn’t distinguish himself after, either. He lasted just four seasons in the NBA, falling out of the league after a brief stint with the Nuggets.
Somehow, it got even worse for Wilkins with the Clippers that season.
