Lithuanian centre Jonas Valanciunas has signed a three-year, $30 million contract with the Washington Wizards, according to sources cited by ESPN.
Valanciunas, 32, brings experience and depth to the centre department of the Wizards, who recently selected young Frenchman Alex Sarr as the second pick in last week’s NBA draft.
Last season with the New Orleans Pelicans, Valanciunas averaged 12.2 points and 8.8 rebounds per game on 55.9 per cent shooting.
The center, selected by Utah with the 28th overall pick in the 2017 NBA Draft, returns to the franchise where he spent the first three seasons of his career.
Golden State has parted ways with the three players, bringing its roster to 18 ahead of the start of the 2026-27 NBA season.
The Texas franchise has parted ways with the two guards following four and three preseason games, respectively.
The Wisconsin franchise has announced the release of the three players ahead of the start of the regular season.
New York has waived the veteran guard but could consider bringing him back in December, when NBA contracts become prorated.
