Wizards' Justin Champagnie: Inks 10-day deal with Washington
Champagnie agreed to a 10-day contract with the Wizards on Tuesday, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Prior to getting the opportunity with the Wizards, Champagnie had been a dominant performer for the G League's Sioux Falls Skyforce, averaging 22.3 points, 8.9 rebounds, 3.0 assists, 2.4 steals, 1.7 three-pointers and 1.3 blocks in 37.6 minutes per game over 34 appearances. The third-year pro hasn't appeared in an NBA game since the 2022-23 campaign, and has made only five appearances since 2021-22. With Kyle Kuzma and Deni Avdija occupying the two starting forward spots and reserve options in Bilal Coulibaly and Corey Kispert needing playing time, it's unclear how many minutes will be available for Champagnie over the next 10 days.

Heat's Justin Champagnie: Joining Miami
Champagnie signed an Exhibit 10 deal with the Heat on Friday.
Champagnie spent time at the NBA level last season between the Celtics and Raptors in 2022-23 and also suited up in 23 games for the Heat's G League affiliate, the Sioux Falls Skyforce. Though the 6-foot-6 forward ended the campaign as a member of Boston's 15-man roster, he was cut loose in July and will now rejoin the Heat organization. Champagnie will get the chance to battle for a roster spot in training camp, but the Heat signed him mainly for the purpose of retaining his G League rights heading into the 2023-24 season. In his 23 appearances for the Skyforce in 2022-23, Champagnie averaged 18.2 points, 8.0 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 31.3 minutes.
