The Wizards have reached an agreement on a two-way contract with undrafted rookie guard RayJ Dennis, league sources tell Michael Scotto of HoopsHype (Twitter link).
A fifth-year super-senior at Baylor in 2023/24, Dennis averaged 13.6 points, 6.7 assists, and 3.9 rebounds in 34.3 minutes per game across 35 contests (all starts). His shooting line was .479/.328/.731.
The 6’2″ guard also played for Boise State for two seasons and Toledo for two more before transferring to Baylor. He earned Mid-American Conference Player of the Year honors in 2023 with Toledo and made the All-Big 12 second team in 2024.
Dennis was part of the Clippers’ Summer League team in Las Vegas, then signed an Exhibit 10 contract with L.A. last month. He was waived last week after appearing in one preseason game and seemed on track to end up with the San Diego Clippers in the G League. Instead, it appears he’ll open the regular season as part of the Wizards’ 18-man roster.
With Justin Champagnie and Tristan Vukcevic on two-way deals, Washington had one two-way slot open. However, the team is currently at its preseason limit of 21 players, so someone will need to be waived to make room for Dennis. That shouldn’t be an issue, since the Wizards’ non-guaranteed camp invitees will likely be cut this weekend.
