Wizards to add free-agent guard to camp roster

Free-agent guard Alondes Williams has reached an agreement with the Washington Wizards, NBA insider Chris Haynes tweets. Considering the Wizards already have 15 players under guaranteed contracts, it’s safe to assume Williams is receiving a training camp deal.

The addition of Williams will push the Wizards’ roster count to 19 players, two shy of the limit. Williams has nine games of NBA experience — he made his debut with the Nets in 2022-23, saw action in seven games with the Heat the following season, then appeared in one game with the Pistons last season.

Detroit signed Williams to a two-way deal in October but waived him in early January. Williams was a member of the Orlando Magic’s Summer League squad in July.

Last season, Williams appeared in 45 G League games with the Sioux Falls SkyForce and Motor City Cruise. He averaged 18.7 points, 4.3 rebounds and 5.4 assists in 32.9 minutes per game.

If Williams received an Exhibit 10 contract and gets waived before opening night, he could potentially join the Capital City Go-Go and earn an Exhibit 10 bonus worth up to $85,300.
