The Washington Wizards have declined their fourth-year option on Chris McCullough.

McCullough was the 29th overall pick in the 2015 draft by the Brooklyn Nets and was traded to Washington with Bojan Bogdanovic.

McCullough is now two years removed from ACL surgery and showed potential while playing in the G-League.

Carrick Felix and Markieff Morris have each been suspended one game without pay for leaving the bench area during an altercation.

The incident, which Wizards guard Bradley Beal initiated against Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green by grabbing him around the neck, occurred with 19.5 seconds remaining in the second quarter of the Warriors' 120-117 win over the Wizards on Friday, Oct. 27 at Oracle Arena.

Beal was ejected for initiating the incident and has been fined $50,000. Green, who continued the incident by confronting Beal and failing to disengage from him, was ejected for fighting, and has been fined $25,000.

In addition, Wizards forward Kelly Oubre Jr. has been fined $15,000 for aggressively entering the altercation.

Draymond Green and Bradley Beal were both ejected from Friday night's game shortly before halftime.

Beal slapped Green in the face from behind, which led Green to grab Beal. The two remained locked as the scuffle spilled into the baseline.

Green had received a technical foul earlier in the game.

Green spoke with ESPN about the incident while the game was still in progress.

"I don't know what I'm supposed to do if someone hits you twice. Man, you're taught as a kid not to allow that. What was I supposed to do?

Green was asked if there's history with Bea.

"There's history with me and the NBA. That's the only reason I can think of why I was ejected."

The Washington Wizards have waived guard Donald Sloan.

Sloan (6-3, 205) appeared in two contests for the Wizards this preseason, where he averaged 9.0 points, 4.5 assists, 2.5 rebounds and 1.0 steal.

Washington’s roster now stands at 17.

The Washington Wizards have waived center Daniel Ochefu.

Ochefu averaged 1.3 points and 1.2 rebounds in 19 games for the Wizards last season after being signed as undrafted rookie.

The Wizards’ roster now stands at 18 players.

Sheldon Mac will undergo surgery to repair his torn left Achilles and be out for six to eight months.

Mac split his time in 16-17 with the Washington Wizards and in the G-League.

Mac went undrafted in 2016 out of Miami.

Marcus Morris and Markieff Morris were found not guilty in their aggravated assault trial.

The Morris twins were accused of helping three other people beat up Erik Hood outside a high school basketball game in Phoenix in 2015.

The trial began on Sept. 18th.

John Wall has MVP aspirations for the 17-18 season.

"I feel like I am the best point guard in the Eastern Conference," Wall said. "Maybe people didn't get to see me on national TV as much last year, but they will this year."

Wall was one of three players to average 20 points and 10 assists per game last season with Russell Westbrook and James Harden the other two.

"I want to be in the MVP conversation," Wall said. "My expectations are very high."

The Washington Wizards are entering the 17-18 season with a lot of confidence

"I feel like we're the best team in the East, I really do," Bradley Beal said. "That's how we feel coming into the season."

"There's a confidence to our team," Scott Brooks said. "But we still have to get better."

The Wizards were eliminated by the Boston Celtics in the second round of the playoffs last season in a seven-game series. While Boston and the Cleveland Cavaliers have had significant changes to their roster, the Wizards return mostly their entire team.

"I admire [general manager] Ernie [Grunfeld] and [owner] Ted Leonsis for their loyalty and trust in us," Beal said. "They've taken care of us. Now they expect big things from us too, and we put that same pressure on ourselves."

Laurene Powell Jobs is buying a significant stake in Monumental Sports & Entertainment, which owns the Washington Wizards and Washington Capitals.

The investment from Powell Jobs is believed to be in the hundreds of millions of dollars. Her stake will be approximately 20 percent and the second-largest after Ted Leonsis.

“We have an agreement with Laurene Powell Jobs, founder and president of Emerson Collective, to join the Monumental Sports & Entertainment ownership group,” according to a statement that Monumental issued to The Washington Post. “The process is underway and is pending league approvals.”

Powell Jobs is estimated to be worth approximately $20 billion as she holds a significant amount of Apple stock and approximately four percent of Disney.

Powell Jobs was part of a group that unsuccessfully bid on the Los Angeles Clippers a few years ago.
