Overview
- The Washington Wizards announced they re-signed Anthony Gill to fill the club’s final roster spot, according to a team press release.
- Terms were not disclosed but reporting describes the deal as likely a one-year, veteran-minimum type contract that fits the team’s hard-cap at the first tax apron.
- Gill has played six seasons in Washington with 285 appearances and provided improved on-court efficiency last year, shooting 62.8 percent in 55 games.
- Coaches and front-office staff value Gill for his positional versatility off the bench and for mentoring younger players, a role highlighted by his recent participation in team events.
- Gill’s path to this contract traces from going undrafted out of Virginia in 2016 to pro seasons overseas in Turkey and with BC Khimki before establishing a long-term reserve role with the Wizards.
