Contracts can't be officially signed until the NBA's new collective bargaining agreement is ratified, which should be early next week. Dixon, a Baltimore native, was selected with the 17th overall pick of the 2002 NBA draft by the Wizards after starring at the University of Maryland, where he led the Terrapins to the 2002 NCAA championship.
