The Wizards have signed Corey Kispert to a rookie contract, according to NBA.com’s transactions page.

Kispert, 22, was the 15th pick in this year’s draft. He earned first-team All-America honors at Gonzaga and helped the Zags reach the national championship game. Kispert put up career-best numbers as a senior, averaging 18.6 points and 5.0 rebounds per game while shooting 52.9% from the field and 44.0% from three-point range.

Assuming he received 120% of the rookie salary scale, Kispert will earn about $3.38M in his first season and can make up to $16.36M over the four-year deal.
