The Hawks will sign rookie point guard Keshon Gilbert to a two-way contract, league sources tell Jake Fischer of The Stein Line (Twitter link).
Gilbert, who went undrafted in 2025 out of Iowa State, signed a non-guaranteed Exhibit 10 contract with the Wizards last September and was waived at the start of training camp, lining him up to play for Washington’s G League affiliate, the Capital City Go-Go.
The 6’4″ guard has spent most of the season with the Go-Go, averaging 13.7 points, 5.5 assists, 4.3 rebounds, and 1.6 steals in 27.4 minutes per game at the G League level. He has posted a shooting line of .456/.210/.789 in 30 outings for Capital City and earning a brief call-up to the Wizards last month, signing a 10-day deal with the club and appearing in three NBA games.
The Hawks have had an empty two-way slot since they promoted Caleb Houstan to the standard roster last month, so no corresponding roster move will be necessary to add Gilbert. The 22-year-old will join Christian Koloko and RayJ Dennis as Atlanta’s two-way players.
Assuming Gilbert’s two-way contract is officially finalized on Tuesday, he’ll be eligible to be active for up to 12 regular season games for the Hawks for the rest of 2025/26. Atlanta will have a full 18-man roster once the deal is complete.
