The Capital City Go-Go put together a strong 2025-26 campaign, finishing 19-17 and earning a playoff berth behind one of the NBA G League’s most efficient offenses. Will Riley emerged as the centerpiece of the team, delivering explosive scoring production in a brief but memorable stint, while veterans Alondes Williams and Skal Labissiere provided stability throughout the season. The roster reflected the Go-Go’s close partnership with the Washington Wizards, with prospects and affiliate players regularly moving through the lineup. Despite frequent personnel changes, Capital City remained a dangerous offensive team, ranking near the top of the league in offensive rating and advancing to the postseason. A playoff victory over the Cleveland Charge briefly extended the season before the Go-Go were eliminated by the Greensboro Swarm, closing the year with a competitive showing and several noteworthy individual performances.

| Will Riley | Primary Wing Creator (1.1) | 32.3 | High | 26.0 | 4.3 | 4.7 | 0.7 | 94.25 | A high-touch scoring wing, Riley was moved to Capital City specifically to receive starter-level developmental minutes after Washington had sharply reduced his NBA playing time. His early Go-Go stint showed the expected blend of downhill scoring and secondary playmaking, with his 4.7 assists hinting at a broader offensive role than a pure scorer. (Bullets Forever) | Big Ten Sixth Man of the Year (2025) |
| Skal Labissiere | Rim-Protecting Centerpiece (1.1) | 31.9 | High | 19.4 | 8.1 | 2.4 | 2.8 | 86.33 | Labissiere functioned as a two-way interior focal point, combining pick-and-pop range with genuine rim protection. Contemporary reporting around his January NBA call-up highlighted his unusual shooting efficiency from both the field and three-point range, while his shot-blocking volume made him more than a conventional scoring big. (Bullets Forever) | NBA G League Next Up Game (2026) |
| Alondes Williams | Primary Offensive Engine (1.1) | 35.2 | High | 21.6 | 4.8 | 3.2 | 2.6 | 85.01 | Williams operated as Capital City’s principal perimeter shot creator, with a score-first mentality that still left room for playmaking. His 2025-26 stretch included repeated 20-point performances and enough offensive responsibility to earn an NBA opportunity, while his three-point volume kept defenses stretched beyond the arc. (Bullets Forever) | NBA G League Next Up Game (2026); NBA G League All-Star (2026) |
| Jamir Watkins | Two-Way Wing Catalyst (1.05) | 34.8 | High | 14.0 | 8.2 | 2.8 | 2.4 | 69.05 | Watkins’ value was built around disruptive wing defense and physical rebounding rather than pure shot creation. Washington’s summer-league coverage repeatedly highlighted his activity level, including multiple-steal performances, while his long frame allowed him to affect possessions away from the ball even when his outside shooting was inconsistent. (The Washington Post) | NBA Draft selection, No. 43 overall (2025) |
| AJ Johnson | Lead Shot-Creation Guard (1.05) | 29.0 | High | 19.3 | 2.8 | 3.7 | 0.8 | 67.03 | Johnson stepped into a genuine lead-guard assignment when Washington’s regular starters were unavailable, attacking the paint with his speed and ballhandling rather than simply spotting up. His coaching staff specifically pointed to improved physicality, while the increased responsibility exposed both his developing finishing and decision-making. (The Washington Post) | — |
| Sharife Cooper | Pick-and-Roll Engine (1.05) | 27.9 | High | 11.9 | 4.0 | 5.7 | 0.6 | 55.94 | Cooper entered the season with an established reputation as a high-level G League creator, and Washington’s decision to give him a two-way contract reflected that developmental upside. His game is built around manipulating pick-and-roll coverage, getting downhill and creating passing windows, with three-point shooting remaining the obvious swing skill. (Hoops Rumors) | — |
| Keshon Gilbert | Defensive Playmaking Guard (1.05) | 26.3 | Medium | 13.4 | 4.1 | 4.7 | 2.0 | 55.90 | Gilbert’s profile is that of a pressure guard who creates advantages with the ball while generating activity defensively. Before turning pro, he was described as Iowa State’s second-leading scorer and had developed a reputation for combining scoring with playmaking and steals; that two-way guard identity carried naturally into his professional transition. (Cyclone Fanatic) | All-Big 12 Third Team (2025) |
| Leaky Black | Glue Guy Starter (1.05) | 34.8 | Medium | 10.9 | 6.2 | 3.4 | 2.6 | 53.36 | Black filled the connective role that keeps a development-heavy lineup functional: defending multiple positions, rebounding from the wing and moving the ball without demanding possessions. His later two-way promotion reinforced the value evaluators placed on that versatility, particularly his rebounding and defensive activity. (SI) | NBA two-way contract (2026) |
| Tyler Smith | Stretch Big Development Piece (1.05) | 26.3 | Medium | 10.5 | 4.6 | 1.5 | 1.1 | 40.89 | Smith was used as a mobile frontcourt scorer with enough perimeter range to pull larger defenders away from the paint. His prior G League development showed a similarly versatile offensive profile, while his move from Capital City after eight games reflected his continuing status as a developmental big moving between assignments. (The NBA G League) | — |
| Kadary Richmond | Secondary Offensive Creator (1.05) | 21.9 | Medium | 6.2 | 3.9 | 2.1 | 2.1 | 33.03 | Richmond’s game centers on size, positional versatility and secondary playmaking rather than high-volume scoring. His 6-foot-6 guard frame allows him to handle larger matchups, rebound from the backcourt and create connective possessions, which helped earn him an NBA opportunity during the season. (Hoops Rumors) | NBA 10-Day Contract (2026) |
| Akoldah Gak | Mobile Interior Reserve (1.0) | 15.2 | Low | 5.5 | 2.9 | 0.5 | 1.1 | 20.00 | Gak served primarily as a mobile frontcourt reserve, bringing length and finishing potential without needing designed touches. His earlier NBL play showed flashes of interior production and rebounding, and his move into the Washington system represented another developmental step for a young Australian big. (Fox Sports Australia) | — |
| Damari Monsanto | Instant-Offense Wing Reserve (1.0) | 15.3 | Low | 6.3 | 2.8 | 0.5 | 0.3 | 19.80 | Monsanto’s clearest offensive value came from spacing the floor and attacking closeouts rather than initiating the offense. His 43.8% three-point shooting in this sample fits the profile of a reserve wing who can change a possession quickly when given an open perimeter look. | — |
| Christopher Mantis | Movement Shooter Reserve (1.0) | 14.0 | Low | 4.9 | 1.6 | 0.7 | 0.3 | 15.00 | Mantis entered professional basketball with a reputation as a perimeter-oriented scorer; during his Maine season, he produced several notable shooting performances, including a five-of-eight three-point outing against Albany. That shooting gravity gives him a straightforward role as a floor-spacing reserve. (The Portland Press Herald) | — |
| Jonathan Pierre | Versatile Forward Reserve (1.0) | 13.1 | Low | 3.4 | 2.9 | 0.3 | 0.1 | 13.40 | Pierre’s college profile was built around versatility rather than one elite offensive skill: Belmont used the 6-foot-9 forward as a scorer, rebounder and passer, and his 2025 All-MVC recognition reflected that broad contribution. His professional role was consequently more developmental and situational. (Belmont University) | First Team All-MVC (2025); MVC All-Newcomer Team (2025) |
| Nolan Hickman | Perimeter Spacing Guard (1.0) | 11.4 | Low | 3.4 | 0.8 | 0.8 | 0.3 | 10.60 | Hickman’s primary value was perimeter skill and ball security within a limited-minute role. At Gonzaga he established himself as a high-volume three-point shooter, finishing his college career ninth in school history in made threes, giving Capital City a developmental guard with proven floor-spacing credentials.

| Alondes Williams | Primary Offensive Engine (1.1) | 36.0 | High (1.2) | 22.9 | 5.7 | 4.6 | 1.8 | 92.40 | Williams functioned as the Go-Go’s main perimeter creator, mixing downhill attacks with pull-up shooting and secondary playmaking. Contemporary coverage noted that he led Capital City in scoring during the Tip-Off Tournament and produced eight 20-point games during the season, reinforcing the picture of a high-touch offensive hub rather than a spot-up guard. NBA G League reporting | NBA G League Next Up Game (2026) |
| Will Riley | Primary Wing Creator (1.1) | 31.0 | High (1.2) | 28.0 | 3.0 | 3.5 | 2.5 | 87.65 | Riley was given a genuine creation role in his brief Go-Go stint, using his size to score from the wing while also initiating offense. His 28.0-point scoring level and 3.5 assists came in only two games, so the sample is small, but the usage clearly extended beyond a conventional developmental spot-up role. ESPN | — |
| Sharife Cooper | Pick-and-Roll Engine (1.1) | 32.4 | High (1.2) | 18.8 | 4.4 | 7.0 | 1.7 | 84.22 | Cooper operated as a true table-setter, with his value coming from manipulating pick-and-roll coverage and creating shots for teammates. His 7.0 assists underline that responsibility, while his established professional reputation has centered on advanced ballhandling and probing ability despite an inconsistent outside shot. | — |
| Skal Labissiere | Rim-Protecting Centerpiece (1.1) | 31.4 | High (1.2) | 19.5 | 7.4 | 2.4 | 2.5 | 83.95 | Labissiere played as an unusually mobile interior centerpiece, capable of protecting the rim while also stretching defenses with three-point shooting. Reporting around his Wizards call-up highlighted his combination of elite G League efficiency and shot-blocking production, including multiple games with at least three blocks. NBA G League reporting | NBA G League Next Up Game (2026) |
| Chris Livingston | Starting Two-Way Forward (1.05) | 34.2 | High (1.2) | 20.4 | 8.1 | 2.3 | 1.6 | 81.65 | Livingston’s role leaned toward physical two-way forward play: attacking the paint, finishing through contact and using his frame on the glass. His G League development has also been tied to defensive versatility, while his 34.2-minute workload shows how extensively he was trusted in this stretch. 3PointStats | — |
| Julian Reese | Starting Interior Presence (1.05) | 31.3 | Medium (1.1) | 17.7 | 9.7 | 3.0 | 1.6 | 73.92 | Reese brought a traditional big-man base with more passing responsibility than the label suggests. His Maryland career established him as a physical rebounder and interior scorer, while his early professional opportunities have continued to test whether that inside game can translate against stronger frontcourt competition. | — |
| Keshon Gilbert | Two-Way Lead Guard (1.05) | 29.8 | High (1.2) | 16.1 | 4.6 | 6.5 | 1.6 | 72.58 | Gilbert’s calling card was pressure creation from the guard spot: he could get downhill, distribute and generate turnovers defensively. His season included a 25-point, 10-rebound, 10-assist triple-double and enough sustained playmaking to earn a Washington 10-day contract, evidence that his role was broader than simple scoring. NBA G League reporting | Third Team All-Big 12 (2025) |
| Kadary Richmond | Secondary Ball-Handling Creator (1.05) | 27.7 | Medium (1.1) | 13.0 | 5.4 | 6.2 | 1.9 | 61.21 | Richmond supplied size and secondary creation from the backcourt, often functioning as a connector who could rebound, push the ball and find cutters rather than simply hunt shots. His college reputation was built around positional versatility and playmaking, traits that carried into his first professional season. | — |
| Leaky Black | Defensive Utility Wing (1.05) | 35.7 | Medium (1.1) | 9.9 | 8.0 | 3.3 | 2.6 | 54.98 | Black’s role was fundamentally connective: defend multiple positions, rebound from the wing and keep possessions moving without demanding touches. His 35.7-minute workload and strong defensive activity fit the profile of a veteran-oriented utility forward whose value often sits between the box-score categories. | — |
| Jamir Watkins | Starting Two-Way Wing (1.05) | 29.3 | Medium (1.1) | 13.3 | 6.3 | 1.3 | 2.0 | 52.90 | Watkins played with a physical wing identity, using his length to rebound and pressure opposing ballhandlers while still providing enough shooting to occupy the weak side. His 2.0 steals plus blocks per game capture the disruptive element of his game better than scoring alone does. NBA G League reporting | — |
| AJ Johnson | Lead Shot-Creation Guard (1.05) | 29.0 | Medium (1.1) | 13.3 | 4.0 | 3.0 | 1.0 | 49.20 | Johnson was used as a young attacking guard rather than a passive spacer, with the freedom to handle, penetrate and create his own three-point attempts. His development path has emphasized learning to turn impressive speed and ball skills into more efficient NBA-level decision-making. NBA G League reporting | — |
| Nolan Hickman | Perimeter Spacing Guard (1.0) | 30.5 | Low (1.0) | 10.8 | 2.4 | 3.6 | 1.2 | 36.00 | Hickman’s offensive identity was rooted in perimeter shooting and off-ball movement rather than constant on-ball creation. His Gonzaga career saw him develop into a reliable high-volume three-point shooter, and his 225 career makes ranked ninth in program history when he entered the professional pathway. Sports Illustrated | First Team All-WCC (2025) |
| Damari Monsanto | Catch-and-Shoot Wing Specialist (1.0) | 17.1 | Low (1.0) | 10.6 | 2.8 | 1.1 | 0.8 | 30.60 | Monsanto’s clearest offensive function was floor spacing: he could punish defensive help with a quick-release three and attack closeouts when defenders overplayed him. The 2.6 made threes per game in this sample point to a perimeter-heavy role rather than a primary creation assignment. | — |
| Akoldah Gak | Mobile Frontcourt Finisher (1.0) | 16.6 | Low (1.0) | 7.5 | 3.7 | 1.2 | 1.3 | 27.40 | Gak’s frontcourt game was built around mobility, finishing and rebounding, with his earlier Cairns run showing that he could become a useful interior presence when given extended minutes. Independent NBL coverage highlighted a 21-point, 14-rebound performance as a major breakthrough in his development. ESPN Australia | — |
| Christopher Mantis | Movement Shooting Forward (1.0) | 22.1 | Low (1.0) | 8.4 | 2.5 | 1.1 | 0.5 | 25.00 | Mantis filled a spacing-oriented forward role, using movement without the ball to create perimeter opportunities rather than dominating possessions. His college background at Maine and Appalachian State also pointed toward a complementary scorer who could stretch a lineup without needing heavy usage. | — |
| Trae Hannibal | Energy Guard Reserve (1.0) | 19.5 | Low (1.0) | 5.2 | 3.7 | 1.3 | 1.2 | 22.80 | Hannibal brought physicality and defensive pressure from the guard position, traits that have followed him from LSU into the professional game. His 1.2 steals-plus-blocks mark reflects a disruptive reserve role, while the rebounding numbers are unusually useful for a guard of his size. NBA G League player reporting | — |
| Jonathan Pierre | Versatile Forward Connector (1.0) | 11.2 | Low (1.0) | 5.7 | 2.4 | 0.3 | 0.4 | 17.60 | Pierre’s defining trait has been versatility rather than volume scoring. At Belmont, he was described as a rare blend of scoring, playmaking and rebounding for a 6-foot-9 forward, including a 28-point, seven-rebound, nine-assist performance against Richmond during his All-MVC season. Belmont University coverage | First Team All-MVC (2025); MVC All-Newcomer Team (2025) |
| Micah Parrish | Defensive Wing Reserve (1.0) | 15.5 | Low (1.0) | 3.5 | 1.0 | 0.5 | 1.0 | 12.00 | Parrish’s profile has generally centered on wing defense and floor spacing, giving him a straightforward complementary role when minutes are available. With only two games in this sample, the statistical footprint is too small to suggest a larger offensive responsibility. | — |
| Eric Ayala | Perimeter Reserve Guard (1.0) | 9.9 | Low (1.0) | 1.5 | 2.0 | 0.3 | 0.2 | 8.00 | Ayala occupied a limited perimeter reserve role, with his value tied more to experience and spot shooting than sustained creation. The tiny 9.9-minute workload makes this a particularly small sample, so his season is better characterized as situational usage than a settled rotation role. | — |

RotoWire | |
| Kadary Richmond | Playmaking Lead Guard (1.05) | 36.0 | High | 16.5 | 7.5 | 8.0 | 2.5 | 86.94 | Big-bodied initiator who functioned as the Go-Go’s connective playmaker, particularly valuable when possessions needed to be organized rather than simply finished; he came off the bench for 21 points, seven rebounds and six assists in the opener and later approached a triple-double with 12 points, 10 assists and eight rebounds. CBS Sports | |
| Skal Labissiere | Stretch Interior Scoring Anchor (1.05) | 37.5 | Medium | 22.0 | 8.0 | 1.0 | 2.0 | 76.23 | Mobile big who stretched opposing centers away from the rim while still providing interior size and rim protection; his two playoff games featured efficient scoring and two blocks per contest, following a season in which his shooting range had become a major part of his offensive value. OurSportsCentral | G League Next Up Game (2026) |
| Julian Reese | Offensive Rebounding Interior Force (1.0) | 25.0 | Medium | 12.0 | 8.5 | 1.5 | 1.0 | 50.60 | Physical reserve big whose value came from occupying the paint, attacking the glass and extending possessions rather than spacing the floor; he grabbed 11 rebounds in his playoff debut and produced a double-double off the bench, giving Capital City useful interior pressure in limited minutes. Sports Illustrated | |
| Leaky Black | Defensive Utility Wing (1.0) | 32.0 | Low | 4.0 | 6.0 | 2.0 | 2.0 | 28.00 | Defense-first wing who supplied rebounding, connective passing and positional versatility while accepting a very small offensive role; his 32 playoff minutes produced six rebounds, two assists and two steals despite just four points, consistent with the broader season role that helped earn him a two-way contract. CBS Sports | |
| Nolan Hickman | Secondary Table-Setting Guard (1.0) | 26.0 | Low | 3.0 | 0.0 | 3.0 | 2.0 | 16.00 | Low-volume guard whose playoff responsibility centered more on organizing possessions and providing supplementary defense than scoring; his lone postseason appearance produced three assists, one steal and one block, reflecting a complementary role behind Capital City’s larger creators. ESPN | |
| Christopher Mantis | Instant-Offense Reserve (1.0) | 14.0 | Low | 4.5 | 0.5 | 0.0 | 0.0 | 10.00 | Spot-up shooting was the clearest offensive avenue for Mantis, with his limited playoff minutes translating into efficient perimeter scoring rather than secondary creation; the small sample still showed his ability to provide a quick offensive lift when the rotation needed spacing. Hoopsleagues | |
| Trae Hannibal | Defensive Energy Reserve (1.0) | 9.0 | Low | 2.0 | 1.0 | 1.5 | 0.5 | 10.00 | Energy guard used in short bursts, with the emphasis on pressure, pace and keeping the second unit functional rather than creating a large scoring load; his limited postseason run reflected a depth role behind the Go-Go’s primary ballhandlers. CBS Sports | |
| Damari Monsanto | Perimeter Shooting Specialist (1.0) | 7.5 | Low | 1.5 | 1.5 | 1.0 | 0.5 | 9.00 | Floor-spacing reserve whose playoff opportunity was extremely narrow, leaving him little room to establish an offensive rhythm; the role was essentially to provide perimeter availability and secondary possessions when the main rotation needed another shooter on the floor.
