Daryl Morey loses bet to Kyle Wiltjer, has to wear Gonzaga shirt

Not even general managers are immune from March Madness shenanigans.

Rockets GM Daryl Morey tweeted a picture of himself wearing a Gonzaga Bulldogs shirt on Thursday, apparently having lost a bet to rookie big man Kyle Wiltjer, who played the final two seasons of his college career at Gonzaga.

I am unhappy paying off my bet to @kwiltj tonight – I do hope Zags win title though as @NUMensBball will then clearly be the 2nd best team pic.twitter.com/4a3OUgO11X

Morey himself attended Northwestern University, so this bet stems back to Gonzaga’s victory over Northwestern in the Round of 32 earlier this month.

For his part, Wiltjer was pleased with the offering:

Morey has been producing some strong content on Twitter lately, so maybe the forward-thinking executive has created a new Holy Trinity for the basketball believers: threes, free throws, and tweets.
