The Wizards are making a late addition to their Las Vegas Summer League squad. Nate Wolters, who has spent time in the NBA with the Bucks and Pelicans, as well as in the D-League and overseas, is reportedly joining the team after finishing up his stint with Indiana in the Orlando Summer League:
Nate Wolters will play with the Washington Wizards' Summer League team in Vegas. He played with the Indiana Pacers in Orlando Summer League.

There probably isn’t a spot for Wolters on the 15-man roster, since the Wizards already have John Wall, Tomas Satoransky and Trey Burke who can run the point, but he’s nice addition for the team. He averaged 5.5 points, 4.0 rebounds and 2.8 assists per game with the Pacers in Orlando. He gives the Wizards another point guard with who won’t dominate the ball and hopefully help players like Kelly Oubre, Aaron White, and Jarell Eddie get better scoring opportunities.
Wolters was actually drafted by the Wizards in 2013, but never played a game for the team because he was one of the picks the team used to move up in the second round to draft Glen Rice Jr.
