The 6-foot-11 forward, who averaged 8.0 points, 6.3 rebounds and 1.5 blocks at Tennessee last season, will start the 2026-27 season in the G League with the Capital City Go-Go.
Okpara joins Jamir Watkins and Julian Reese as Washington’s two-way players.
Washington’s roster sits at 14 standard contracts and three two-way contracts:
Guard: Trae Young | Tre Johnson | Bub Carrington | D’Angelo Russell
Wing: AJ Dybantsa | Kyshawn George | Bilal Coulibaly | Will Riley
Forward: Anthony Davis | Justin Champagnie | Cam Whitmore
Center: Alex Sarr | Deandre Ayton | Tristan Vukcevic
Two-way: Jamir Watkins, Julian Reese, Felix Okpara

Washington could open another roster spot by waiving or buying out Russell, who opted in to his $5.9 million player option but never reported to Washington following last February’s trade from the Dallas Mavericks.
