Washington assigned forward Chris McCullough to the Wisconsin Herd of the G-League on Wednesday and waived forward Mike Young, who was on a two-way contract.
McCullough was acquired as part of the trade that brought Bojan Bogdanovic from Brooklyn late last season in a move to acquire Bogdanovic for the playoffs. The trade also allowed the Wizards to get out from under Andrew Nicholson’s contract, though they had to include their 2017 first-round pick to do so.
McCullough averaged just 3.0 points and 1.7 rebounds in extremely limited playing time with the Wizards this season. McCullough is intriguing because of his age, 22, and frame, 6 foot 11, 200 pounds.
