Hampton became a free agent Wednesday after his 10-day contract with the Wizards expired, Keith Smith of Spotrac.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Hampton is eligible to sign a second 10-day deal or a rest-of-season contract with the Wizards, but Washington is expected to move on from the 22-year-old guard and replace him on the 15-man roster with big man Tristan Vukcevic, who agreed to a two-year contract Wednesday, per Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN. Before landing his 10-day deal earlier this month, Hampton had been playing with the Wizards' G League affiliate, the Capital City Go-Go. He could remain in the organization with the G League club if he's unable to quickly find another NBA opportunity in free agency.

The Wizards recalled Hampton from the G League's Capital City Go-Go on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Hampton could be available off the bench for Wednesday's game against the Magic, though he's unlikely to factor into the rotation while the contest is competitive. Before signing a 10-day deal with Washington over the weekend, Hampton had previously made all eight of his NBA appearances this season with the Heat, averaging 1.3 points, 1.0 assists and 0.8 rebounds in 9.5 minutes per contest while shooting 28.6 percent from the field.

Hampton signed a 10-day contract with the Wizards on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Hampton will be getting his second NBA opportunity of the season after he previously appeared in eight games with the Heat while on a two-way deal before Miami waived him in February. The 2020 first-round draft pick has seen the bulk of his playing time in the G League this season, averaging 12.2 points, 4.1 rebounds, 3.9 assists, 1.3 steals and 1.1 three-pointers in 24.8 minutes per game over 15 appearances between the Capital City Go-Go and Sioux Falls Skyforce.

Hampton will sign a 10-day contract with the Wizards on Sunday, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.
EDGE Analysis
Justin Champagnie's 10-day expired Sunday, and Washington retained him by offering a two-way deal, which opens up a spot on the 15-man roster for Hampton. Hampton has spent time with Denver, Orlando, Detroit and Miami over the last four seasons, but he's never been able to supply sustained production. Hampton isn't guaranteed playing time in Washington, but there will be minutes available if Bilal Coulibaly (pelvis) remains sidelined.

Hampton is listed as questionable for Saturday's game versus the Knicks due to a hernia.
EDGE Analysis
Hampton's late addition to the injury report is a bad sign of his availability against the Knicks. However, his potential absence shouldn't affect Miami's rotation.
