Jazian Gortman is on the Washington Wizards roster as of Saturday, Oct. 3, per the team's official roster. The 23-year-old guard arrives from free agency with no prior NBA line on record.
The move
Jazian Gortman joins the Washington Wizards, moving from free agency onto Washington's roster. The move was detected from the official roster on Saturday, Oct. 3. Gortman is 23 years old with one season of NBA experience. No official report preceded the transaction, and none is logged for this signing. The guard had no NBA line last season and now joins a Washington backcourt built around established rotation pieces.
The money
Gortman's contract is not on file yet; public salary data can lag a signing by a day, so his cap hit and term are unknown for now. Washington's payroll sits at $192.8 million across 15 contracts for 2026-27, putting the Wizards over the $165.0 million salary cap but under the $200.4 million luxury tax line. The team has room before the $209.0 million first apron and the $221.7 million second apron, neither of which is reached at this payroll level.
The fit
Gortman played no NBA minutes last season, so he arrives without an established scoring or minutes line. Washington's backcourt already features CJ McCollum, who averaged 30.9 minutes and 18.8 points last season, Bub Carrington at 27.7 minutes and 10.7 points, and Alondes Williams at 25.2 minutes and 11.0 points. Kyshawn George logged 29.0 minutes and 14.8 points on the wing. The Wizards now carry 22 players on the roster, against a standard limit of 15 plus three two-way spots.
