Evans Thinks He's A Fit For Washington

Tyreke Evans played primarily point guard at Memphis and it is still unclear which position he will fit best at in the NBA.

"I'm a combo guard," said Evans, who was excited about possibly teaming with Gilbert Arenas in Washington. "I think I'd fit perfectly. If they get healthy, they'll be back as one of the top teams in the NBA. I wouldn't mind playing behind Gilbert, watching, learning from him. I'm not the type of player that's going to go in there and complain about playing time. If I have to wait my turn, I'll wait my turn."

Cassell Will Try To Make Arenas A Leader

Sam Cassell has joined the Wizards as an assistant coach, and will work with superstar guard Gilbert Arenas.

"He's better," Cassel said of Arenas on ESPN 980 in DC.

"He'll be ready for opening night. He's ready. We rely on Gil to do a lot of things for us - not just scoring, but being a leader. That's why I'm here. I'm here to show him how to be a leader. If you don't know, you don't know. There's nothing wrong with not knowing something. That means you got room to improve and learn."
