Wizards Officially Sign Michael Foster Jr.

The Washington Wizards bolster roster today by announcing the signing of forward Michael Foster Jr. on an Exhibit 10 contract.

In order to create room on the 21-man roster, rookie guard Chase Audige, who was also under an Exhibit 10 deal, was waived.

Foster, who went undrafted last year, had previously played for the G League Ignite during the 2021/22 season.

He later joined the Sixers, spending the early weeks of the regular season on a two-way contract and making his NBA debut during that stint.

However, he was released in November, leading him to complete the season with the Delaware Blue Coats, the Philadelphia G League affiliate.

At the age of 20, Foster maintained an average of 13.6 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 1.8 blocks in 41 games for the Blue Coats last season, playing a significant role that contributed to the NBAGL championship victory in the spring.
