On Wednesday, the Wizards announced the signing of Jerian Grant, a versatile, long-armed guard who has played a total of five seasons in the NBA and NBA G League. Grant will don a Wizards jersey for the first time later this month when the NBA season resumes in Orlando, a moment he says will be a “dream come true.”

Grant’s ties to the team, however, go back over 20 years.

A native of Silver Spring, Md. and son of former Washington Bullet Harvey Grant, Jerian worked as a ball boy with the team as a kid before his own basketball career began to blossom.
