    Washington Wizards[edit]

    Rice playing for the Washington Wizards' 2013 NBA Summer League team
    On July 8, 2013, Rice signed with the Washington Wizards.[67] In the 2013 NBA Summer League, he twice registered the Summer League Sprite Dunk of the Day (July 14 and July 19).[68][69] Rice made his professional debut in the Wizards' seventh game of the season on November 12, 2013, against the Dallas Mavericks, making his only shot (a three-pointer) and adding a rebound.[70][71] After Rice's debuted by playing the final 79 seconds of a loss that caused the Wizards to fall to 2–5, head coach Randy Wittman said he would probably shuffle the lineup.[71] In the following game against San Antonio on November 13, Rice played 13 minutes and tallied 3 rebounds while registering his first NBA steal.[72] On December 9, with Bradley Beal injured and Martell Webster sitting out, Rice who had totaled 11 points in his first 8 games, was given his first NBA start against Denver.[73][74] Rice scored 7 points to go along with 3 rebounds and 3 steals.[75] On December 18, Rice had an outpatient procedure in New York to repair a fractured right wrist suffered two days earlier. He was expected to miss 3–6 weeks.[76][77]

    On January 20, 2014, Rice was assigned to the Iowa Energy of the NBA D-League, in what was regarded more as a rehab assignment than a demotion.[78][79] On January 28, 2014, he was recalled by the Wizards after averaging 24.3 points, 10.3 rebounds, 2.7 blocks and 2.0 steals in three NBADL games.[80] On February 27, 2014, Rice was reassigned to the Iowa Energy.[81][82] On April 5, 2014, he was recalled by the Wizards.[83]

    Following his first season, Rice was available to the Wizards on a team option for a salary of $816,000.[84] Rice joined the team for the 2014 NBA Summer League, where he averaged a league-leading 25 points as well as 7.8 rebounds, 2.5 steals and 2.3 assists.[85] He earned NBA All-Summer League 1st team (along with Wizards teammate Otto Porter) and NBA Summer League MVP recognition.[86] One of his highlights was a game-tying three-point shot in double overtime of the Summer League playoff quarterfinal game.[87] However, with the offseason acquisition of Paul Pierce, both Rice and Porter will likely see limited minutes at small forward during the 2014–15 regular season.[88] Rice was the recipient of what the league ruled was a November 4 groin strike by J. R. Smith that led to a one-game suspension for Smith. Rice had been called for a personal foul on the play in a game against the New York Knicks.[89][90] On November 20, 2014 he was assigned to the Fort Wayne Mad Ants of the NBA Development League.[91] On January 7, 2015, he was waived by the Wizards.[92]

    From having a good outlook to limited minutes to being waived in the end.

    Unfortunately, he has been the most consistent for all three games.

    Harrell still scored 15 points? Judging from the comments in this thread, he seemed lost in the game.

    Harrell was playing out of position, and at times seemed to be trying to guard two 7'+ bigs at once, because we were small. If Williams had been out there, we'd've won, and Harrell would've looked better. Free throws, tho. I don't ever wanna watch hack-a-Harrell. Sheesh, please, spare us that.

    Rice can flat-outscore, and create, and look effortless doing so. Impressive: two four-point plays in one game. His body language, I dunno, maybe it's just a strategic disguise. Or maybe he's bored by it all, and his mind is occupied with problems in string theory or whatnot. If he's not an intolerable ass as a teammate, I hope we'll have a roster spot for him.

    So far, Williams is my SL favorite. He is everything TJ has not been at the power forward position. I think his skills will translate to the NBA, because his aggressiveness, size, footwork, and hands really don't need improvement. And he makes FTs!

    Williams has some promise. I would like to see a weight clause in his contract, if he does make the team.

    26 for 77? That's the stat line? Good thing our 3 most prominent guys weren't there, because that's straight dismal.... Sorry for those who went to watch these games in person to get jacked of 75% of the show.

    I believe these are Pacific times, so our game is at 3PM CT

    Williams looks pretty small for a big. That's fine during summer league, but his size may keep him from getting minutes in the big leagues IMO.
