Satoransky, Wizards finalize deal to bring him from Spain

WASHINGTON (AP) - Guard Tomas Satoransky has signed with the Washington Wizards.

The team announced the deal with their 2012 second-round draft pick Thursday, without revealing the financial terms.

Earlier this month, the Wizards and Satoransky agreed to a $9 million, three-year contract, according to a person familiar with the move who spoke on condition of anonymity at the time because there was an NBA moratorium on such signings.

As part of the deal, the Wizards agreed to contribute $650,000 toward Satoransky's buyout from the Spanish club he has been with.

The 6-foot-7, 210-pound Satoransky is from the Czech Republic.
