The Wizards have their summer league roster set, and leading the way are Nick Young, Dominic McGuire, Javaris Crittenton and JaVale McGee.
Others include James Lang, who spent 11 games with the Wizards during the 2006-07 season. The 6-foot-10, 285-pound center, played in 11 games that season, mustering just 1 point and 1 rebound a game. But the Central Park Christian High School (Alabama) product, who averaged 7.0 points and 4.3 rebounds in the D-League last season will give the Wizards some size.
