The Washington Wizards have signed alondes williams to a 10-day contract that is official and will run through next Wednesday, covering the team’s next four games.

Alondes Williams: G League production and prior NBA stops
Alondes Williams is a 6'4" guard who went undrafted in 2022 and has had brief NBA stints with multiple teams since then. He saw his most extended NBA playing time in the 2023/24 season during a seven-game stint with the Miami team, and he appeared in one game for the Detroit team in 2024/25 before returning to the G League.
In the G League, Williams has posted strong numbers that prompted this call-up. With the Wizards' G League affiliate, he averaged 20. 2 points, 4. 5 assists and 5. 2 rebounds across 13 regular-season games while connecting on a career-high 43. 0% of his three-pointers in that span. Across his G League career he holds a lifetime three-point percentage of 37. 0% on 5. 4 attempts per game. In a separate G League season that earned him Most Improved Player honors, he averaged 20. 3 points on 49. 8% shooting, along with 5. 3 rebounds and 7. 1 assists across 43 appearances.
What the 10-day deal means for the roster and Williams’ audition
The 10-day signing fills an open roster spot that became available after a previous 10-day contract expired. Williams becomes one of the recent short-term additions to the roster, joining a group that includes multiple two-way contracts and another ten-day signing completed earlier in the week.
- Duration: The contract runs through next Wednesday and covers four upcoming games.
- Roster context: The team has leaned on short-term deals and two-way players to add depth during this stretch.
- Player role: Williams arrives in an audition role, aiming to translate G League form into meaningful minutes at the NBA level.
For alondes williams, the 10-day window is the immediate opportunity to showcase the skills that produced efficient shooting and playmaking at the G League level. The team now has an extra guard with size and perimeter shooting in camp for a short but consequential slate of games.
Immediate implications and what to watch
Short-term roster additions are often evaluated on quick impact and fit. Key aspects to monitor during Williams’ 10-day stay include his integration into the rotation, ability to space the floor with three-point shooting, and how his playmaking translates against NBA defenses in meaningful minutes. His recent G League splits and prior recognition suggest areas where he could contribute if given opportunity.
Details about playing time and role during the upcoming four games will become clearer as the team assesses rotations. This contract is explicitly framed as a limited audition: a chance for Williams to turn substantial G League production into an extended NBA opportunity.
