The Washington Wizards were able to retain free agents Gilbert Arenas and Antawn Jamison, but yesterday the team lost its third and final free agent when shooting guard Roger Mason Jr., a Washington area native and former Virginia star, agreed to two-year, $7.3 million contract with the San Antonio Spurs.
Mason, who confirmed that an agreement was in place, averaged a career-high 9.1 points on 44.3 percent shooting in 80 games with the Wizards last season, his second with the team. The Spurs showed interest in Mason last summer before he signed a one-year deal with the Wizards.

Yeah I agree. He really came into his own this year as a player. It took him a long time to really recover from the shoulder injury early in his career. I hope that we can pick up a defensive minded player.
We sign Dee Brown from the Jazz who is a point guard and we still have about $2.5 million to sign a free agent.
