Wizards Resign N'Diaye

The Washington Wizards have re-signed center Hamady N'Diaye.

"Hamady  gained valuable experience when he received more playing time at the  end of last season and worked hard this summer to continue to improve,"  said Wizards President Ernie Grunfeld.  "His tremendous attitude and  work ethic make him a valuable piece of the team's chemistry."

Ndiaye, the Big East Defensive Player of the Year at Rutgers in 2010,  returns to the Wizards after appearing in 16 games for the team last  season.  The 7-0 native of Senegal was originally selected by Minnesota  with the 56th overall pick in the 2010 NBA Draft before his rights were  traded along with the rights to Trevor Booker in exchange for the rights  to Lazar Hayward and Nemanja Bjelica on Draft Night.

The training camp roster now stands at 17 players.
