Wizards' Chase Audige: Inks deal with Washington

Wizards' Taj Gibson: Returning to Washington
Gibson signed a one-year, $3.2 million deal with the Wizards on Friday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Gibson will return to Washington for a second season after he appeared in 49 games (two starts) during the 2022-23 campaign. The backup center averaged 3.4 points and 1.9 rebounds in 9.8 minutes per game, marking the first time in his 14-year career he ended a season with less than 10 minutes per game. The 38-year-old may be able to carve out a bigger role behind Daniel Gafford with Kristaps Porzingis no longer in the picture, but Gibson likely still won't be fantasy relevant during the 2023-24 season.

Wizards' Deni Avdija: Skipping FIBA World Cup
Avdija won't play for the Israeli national team during the FIBA Basketball World Cup later this month after the Wizards barred him from participating while he manages a hip injury, Albert Lee of BulletsForever.com reports.
Avdija missed the final four games of the regular season while dealing with elbow bursitis, but it's another injury that will keep him from playing for his home country this summer. The 22-year-old didn't show up on Washington's injury report at any point in 2022-23 due to a hip issue, so the organization may just be exercising some extra caution with the young forward by having him skip out on the international tournament. At this stage, Avdija is likely to be good to go for training camp, when he'll be joined by several new faces on an overhauled Washington roster. Avdija, Kyle Kuzma, Daniel Gafford, Delon Wright and Corey Kispert are the Wizards' only regular rotation players from 2022-23 that are still on the roster.

Wizards' Dejan Vasiljevic: Inks training camp deal
Vasiljevic signed an Exhibit 10 contract with the Wizards on Monday, Olgun Uluc of ESPN reports.
Vasiljevic will rejoin the Wizards for training camp after being part of the team's Summer League roster. If he impresses, he could potentially land the Wizards' third and final two-way slot for the 2023-24 campaign or even earn an outright roster spot. Vasiljevic has spent the last three seasons with the Sydney Kings of the NBL and averaged 14.6 points, 4.6 rebounds and 1.7 assists on 38.5 percent shooting from beyond the arc in 2022-23.

Wizards' Jared Butler: Lands two-way deal with Washington
Butler agreed to a two-way contract with the Wizards on Monday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.
Butler, a 2021 second-round pick, appeared in 42 contests (one start) for the Jazz in 2021-22 and averaged 3.8 points in 8.6 minutes per game. He spent most of the 2022-23 season with the G League's Grand Rapids Gold but joined Oklahoma City in March and spent the rest of the campaign with the Thunder. He played sparingly but started in Oklahoma City's regular-season finale and scored 25 points (10-21 FG) in 46 minutes. The Thunder declined to extend Butler a qualifying offer heading into the new league year, but after sticking around with Oklahoma City for the Las Vegas Summer League, the 22-year-old guard was able to find a new opportunity in Washington. He'll fill the two-way slot vacated by Quenton Jackson, whom Washington waived earlier Monday.
