WASHINGTON (AP) -For the first time, team president Ernie Grunfeld will oversee a Washington Wizards training camp in which all the parts were assembled by him.
The Wizards open camp next week in Richmond, Va., under new coach Flip Saunders. Also, every player on the roster has been signed or re-signed by Grunfeld.
Grunfeld is looking for the team to rebound from a 19-63 record, one of the worst seasons in franchise history. He called last season “a fluke” and says Saunders has added “a new type of professionalism” to the team.
Most importantly, Grunfeld says the entire roster is healthy headed into camp. That includes three-time All-Star Gilbert Arenas, who has missed most of the last two years with knee injuries.
