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 $3.38MM in his first season and can make up to $16.36MM over the four-year deal.
ROY this year…watch for it
Means it’s time to move Bertans …..
Bertans should return to form with the new facillitating PG. He shot 40%3 in that off-year.
Really like his game. Hopefully will provide some decent scoring alongside Beal and Dinwiddie
Better shooting version of Adam Morrison. Not sure how his game will translate in the nba.
Watched Corey play in High School alot, and watch him in college. Hope he does really good at the Pro level.
