Starting Monday Gill will start Monday's preseason contest against the Hornets.

Impact The veteran forward will make his first preseason start for the Wizards on Monday. Gill averaged 6.0 points and 3.0 rebounds across 13.5 minutes per game during the Wizards' first two exhibition contests.

Inks two-year deal with Wizards Gill and the Wizards agreed to a two-year contract Thursday, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Gill has seen spot minutes for the Wizards over the past two seasons and averaged 4.1 points and 1.9 rebounds in 10.5 minutes last season. He'll presumably continue seeing limited action.

Approaches double-double off bench Gill contributed nine points (3-10 FG, 1-2 3PT, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds and two assists in Sunday's 124-108 loss to Charlotte.

Impact Gill grabbed eight boards for the second time this season after averaging just 1.8 on the year. Washington ruled out center Thomas Bryant due to a back injury, which left more rebounds to go around.

Makes difference in win Gill contributed nine points (3-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and two blocks across 21 minutes during Sunday's 123-115 win over Golden State.

Impact Gill stepped up and knocked down looks off the bench Sunday. He's now logged back-to-back games with 20-plus minutes played for the first time this season. Gill is averaging 3.6 points per game on a 64.0/61.1/75.7 percent shooting slash across 37 appearances.

Scores 12 in win Gill finished with 12 points (4-7 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 2-3 FT), two rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal across 19 minutes during Thursday's 117-103 victory over the Nets.

Impact Gill, a 29-year-old journeyman who made his NBA debut with the Wizards last season, has now played over 15 minutes in five straight contests. While unremarkable, he's holding his own in a limited sample size. The Virginia product is unlikely to earn a larger role at this time.

Solid showing off bench Gill scored 15 points (6-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-5 FT) while adding two rebounds and a steal in 26 minutes off the bench during Thursday's 113-112 win over the Nets.

Impact The 15 points were a career high for Gill, who hadn't even played double-digit minutes since Jan. 1. The 29-year-old's workload was the result of a Wizards roster depleted by injuries and trades, but once Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is ready to join the frontcourt rotation, Gill could return to the end of the bench.
