On Sunday, the Washington Wizards announced that they placed guard Dillon Jones on waivers. Jones played all three preseason games for the Wizards, averaging 2.0 points per game. The move gets the Wizards down to their 15 player limit for opening day.
Jones was the No. 26 pick of the 2024 NBA Draft where he was drafted by the Wizards. However, after some draft day trades, he ended up playing for the Oklahoma City Thunder, where he made 54 regular season and 10 playoff appearances where the Thunder won the 2024-25 NBA championship. Jones averaged 2.5 points per game last season.
Jones may not be with the Wizards anymore, but he will likely find a new home very soon. Other teams are likely to pick him up off of waivers.
Here is the Wizards’ opening day roster after all the cuts, including Jones’ departure.
