The Washington Wizards signed undrafted free agent Kris Jenkins to a training camp deal, a source told TNT's David Aldridge.

The 6-foot-6 forward is coming off a solid season with the Wildcats, averaging 13.1 points, 4.1 rebounds, two assists, and 1.1 steals, while shooting 36 percent from distance.

Jenkins is best known for his game-winning 3-point buzzer-beater for Villanova in the 2016 national championship.

The Wizards didn't have a pick in this year's draft after acquiring Tim Frazier from the New Orleans Pelicans earlier in the week.
