Taylor was a third-round selection in the 2021 G League Draft, taken by the Oklahoma City Blue.

EDGE Analysis

Taylor signed with the Wizards in Nov. 2020 after going undrafted in the NBA Draft, but he was waived less than a month later and played six games with Erie in the G League last year. He should have a more consistent role from the start of the season with Oklahoma City this time around.

Taylor tallied four points (1-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal over 15 minutes in Sunday's 126-91 win over the Swarm.

EDGE Analysis

Taylor has continued to see minimal usage off the bench to begin the G League season. The 23-year-old is averaging just 2.3 points and 1.0 rebounds over 7.1 minutes per contest over four appearances this year.

Taylor was held scoreless over three minutes in Saturday's 115-108 loss to the Austin Spurs.

EDGE Analysis

Taylor hasn't been part of the rotation to begin the G League season, as he's appeared in just two of the first three games of the year. During that time, he's averaging just 1.5 points over 2.4 minutes per game. Unless other players get recalled by the parent club, Taylor could have to continue settling for a minimal role.

The Wizards waived Taylor on Thursday, Fred Katz of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Taylor linked with the Wizards via an Exhibit-10 contract back in November, but the LSU product wasn't able to earn a long-term opportunity. He'll have to look for a chance to latch on with another club.
