Wizards waive Daniel Ochefu, lose Sheldon Mac for season

made two roster changes Monday. One they decided on their own. The other was forced upon them by injury.

The Wizards waived center Daniel Ochefu, who did not have a guaranteed contract. Ochefu was signed as an undrafted free agent in 2016. He was an odd fit on a roster with two true other centers in a league that was moving away from the big, powerful man-in-the-middle type.

The other change came from second-year shooting guard Sheldon Mac. Mac reportedly tore his Achilles tendon Sunday night in the Wizards’ preseason game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
