Free agent forward Anthony Gill is re-signing with the Wizards, ESPN’s Tim Bontemps tweets.
Gill, 31, has played the last four seasons with Washington. Last season, Gill appeared in 50 games (three starts) and averaged 3.8 points and 1.9 rebounds in 9.3 minutes.
Gill reached double figures in points in six of the last 11 games of the season when he saw regular playing time on a depleted roster. His two-year, veteran’s minimum deal expired at the end of the season.
He’ll add depth, experience and leadership to a mostly young roster. No details of the agreement have been reported but the addition of Gill would give the Wizards 19 players on their training camp roster, including 17 on standard contracts. Two of those contracts are non-guaranteed.
Over his four-year career, Gill has averaged 3.6 points and 1.8 rebounds in 9.9 minutes spanning 179 games.
Gill had reportedly drawn interest from multiple European teams, including Barcelona and Anadolu Efes, but preferred to remain in the NBA.
