The Wizards have reportedly signed Donald Sloan to a one-year contract, according to Shams Charania of Yahoo! Sports:
Free agent Donald Sloan, a 5-year NBA veteran, has agreed on a one-year deal with the Washington Wizards, league sources tell The Vertical.

Sloan played five seasons in the NBA, including where he spent time with the Hawks, the now-Pelicans, Cavaliers, Pacers, and most recently, the Nets in the 2015-16 season. While in Brooklyn, Sloan averaged a career-high 7 points and 4.4 assists per game. In the 2016-17 season, Sloan played for the Guangdong Southern Tigers in China.
If there’s a highlight performance in Sloan’s career, it was his 31 point performance against the Wizards on November 5, 2014.
According to Candace Buckner of the Washington Post, Sloan’s deal is fully guaranteed. He’ll be competing in training camp with Sheldon Mac and Daniel Ochefu, who both have only partially guaranteed contracts, for one of the final roster spots on 15-man roster.
Since Sloan has five years of NBA experience, he is ineligible to sign a two-way deal with the team.
