Mike James Played Without a Name on the Back of His Jersey (Picture)

The Bulls signed veteran guard Mike James on Wednesday from the D-League, and he arrived in Chicago in time for his team’s game against the Wizards.

Wizards buy out Mike James then waive him

Mike James wasn't a part of the Wizards' present, and certainly not it's future, so it was only right that the two sides were able to make an amicable split on Monday.

Clippers 92, Wizards 78

Where would the Wizards have been without Mike James? That's the question you have to ask after they lost to the Clippers, 92-78, on Sunday afternoon. And, considering that James hasn't played an NBA game in more than two months, that tells you all you need to know about the effort. It truly was abysmal.

Mike James Expresses Frustration On Twitter, But Not Throwing In The Towel
