Utah Jazz rookie Ace Bailey caught a lot of flack for his draft strategy leading up to the June 25 night. He canceled a workout with the Philadelphia 76ers --who held the No. 3 pick--as well as workouts with every other team who had an interest in the Rutgers star.

Paul George admits he was wrong about Ace Bailey, says the Jazz rookie had every right to decide where he wants to go in the NBA Draft.

George was reacting to reports about Bailey's predraft strategy, which ESPN's Jonathan Givony and Shams Charania reported "perplexed NBA teams" as he declined invitations from multiple clubs.
