Washington didnt sign him to a 4 year deal to not use him. He'll get his time keep in mind he spent 4 years in orlando and got a lot of bench time as a #1 draft pick. i hope you are correct and he sees a ton of minutes.

Looked like a lot of his time last night was spent playing with guys just trying to make a name for themselves in the preseason. I'm sure it'll look much different come the regular season with a real game plan and rotation.

He got some minutes tonight against the Sixers, tho I didn't see how many do to me being at my sisters wedding, but he did score 11 points which was on the game recap headliner!..

Encouraged also to see he was listed as a starter and earned 30 mins, the most of any player.

"Man of a thousand moves." Love it ! Frank (FJS) - wasn't that the nickname the ladies gave you at Bonas ? How did you know? Especially when the ratio was 10 men to 1 "coed" as they were called back then.

In their loss to the Kings, AN lead the team in points (19), rebounds, and minutes played. Was 2-4 from 3pt. He was not listed as a starter. Nice job!

Wizards to lean on Smith, Nicholson in Mahinmi's absence By: Zach Rosen, October 17, 2016
On Saturday morning, the Wizards announced that center Ian Mahinmi had surgery Friday night on a partially torn medial meniscus in his left knee. Mahinmi suffered the injury in Thursday’s game against Philadelphia, and will miss approximately four to six weeks.
Without Mahinmi, free agent signings Jason Smith and Andrew Nicholson will likely be the first to see expanded minutes off the bench.
Nicholson has put together back-to-back strong performances in the Wizards' past two preseason games. He helped spark Thursday’s 100-79 win over Philadelphia with a double-double (11 points, 12 rebounds) in a spot-start for Morris, and turned in a 19-point performance against the Kings in Lexington on Saturday. Coach Brooks loves Nicholson’s unique game, especially his ability to score around the basket and his developing perimeter shot.
