Washington Releases Chris Chiozza

The Washington Wizards have released two-way guard Chris Chiozza, the team announced. The move freed up the roster spot for incoming big man Anzejs Pasecniks.

Chiozza saw limited action with the big league squad but posted 2.7 points and 2.8 assists in the 10 games that he did play as a member of the Wizards. He played an additional seven contests with Capital City Go Go and averaged 12.1 points and 7.3 assists.

Chiozza will return to Washington’s G League affiliate if his contract goes unclaimed on waivers.

Chiozza went undrafted in 2018 and was previously signed by the Houston Rockets in the second half of the 2018-19 campaign.
