The Wizards have reached an agreement on a contract with free-agent forward Hilton Armstrong.

The deal is believed to be worth the veteran minimum of $992,680.

Armstrong received interest from Toronto, New York, Milwaukee, Detroit and said that he worked out for the Wizards more than a month ago.

"Workout went real well, it was good vibe over there. I think it was a good decision," Armstrong said. "They told me to just run the floor, rebound, play hard, hang in there, be a big body in there. Be the big body that they know I could be. They put a lot of faith in me, and I'm expecting all of it."
