"Dion Waiters: From NBA exile to comeback attempt"

Dion Waiters, the No. 4 pick of the 2012 NBA draft, is attempting a comeback after three seasons away from the league. The 31-year-old veteran held a private workout in front of league scouts and executives, expressing his desire to contribute to a team and show that he has changed. Waiters had a productive yet tumultuous career, with his exit from the NBA in 2020 due to multiple suspensions and personal issues. He has since sought therapy to address depression and anxiety, acknowledging his past mistakes. While the league has changed and Waiters is older, he remains hopeful for an opportunity to recapture what he lost.
