Delon Wright is signing with the Heat.
He was #1 on my Nuggets Buyout Big Board.
But not sure he’d help Denver’s second unit as is. He’s not a scorer/creator.

More on this storyline
The Washington Wizards announced today that they have requested waivers on guard Delon Wright. -via NBA.com / February 16, 2024
Josh Robbins: The Wizards have indeed reached a buyout agreement with Delon Wright, a source confirms. @wojespn first. … The move will leave Washington with 13 players on its 15-man roster, which does not include players on two-way contracts. It’s unclear what the team will do to get to 14. -via Twitter @JoshuaBRobbins / February 16, 2024
Bobby Marks: Wright becomes the second player bought out of his contract since the trade deadline. Miami is an apron team but allowed to sign the guard because his salary in Washington was $8.2M- below the $12.4M non-tax mid level exception. He had $2.6M left on his contract with the Wizards. -via Twitter @BobbyMarks42 / February 16, 2024
