Top Wizards News

  • Wizards' Marvin Bagley: Questionable for Friday

    Bagley (illness) is questionable for Friday's game against the Grizzlies.

    Bagley has been dealing with a non-COVID illness that caused him to miss the Monday matchup against the Warriors. Even if available, Bagley has been a non-factor off the bench for Washington and averages a mere 6.8 minutes per game. He shouldn't be targeted in any format regarding his availability.

  • Wizards' Malcolm Brogdon: Showing progress in recovery

    Brogdon has progressed to shooting with his right hand, Chase Hughes of Monumental Sports Network reports.

    While Brogdon still has his thumb wrapped, it is a good sign he's getting closer, Hughes added. His timetable for recovery is still unknown, but the fact that he is showing progress after undergoing surgery a month ago is encouraging for him moving forward.

  • Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Listed out for Friday

    Kuzma (groin) will be listed as out for Friday's game against Memphis, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

    Kuzma will miss his fourth straight game Friday, and it remains unclear when he'll be able to return to the lineup. In the meantime, Kyshawn George will continue to see extended run for the Wizards, while Corey Kispert will offer more fantasy appeal as well.

  • Wizards' Jared Butler: Minor role continues

    Butler amassed seven points (3-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-1 FT) and three assists in eight minutes during Monday's 125-112 loss to Golden State.

    Butler has averaged 5.6 points and 2.4 assists in 9.0 minutes per game over five appearances this season. As long as Kyle Kuzma (groin) and Malcolm Brogdon (thumb) remain sidelined, Butler should continue to play a minor reserve role.

  • Wizards' Corey Kispert: Modest production in large role

    Kispert ended with four points (2-7 FG, 0-4 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist and one block across 29 minutes during Monday's 125-112 loss to the Warriors.

    After averaging 15.7 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 32.3 minutes over a three-game stretch, Kispert has totaled eight points (3-17 FG), eight rebounds and two assists in 60 minutes over his past two games. With Kyle Kuzma (groin) sidelined, there are more opportunities for Kispert, but Washington's youngsters -- Carlton Carrington, Bilal Coulibaly, Kyshawn George and Alex Sarr -- have stolen the show recently.

  • Wizards' Alex Sarr: Double-doubles in loss

    Sarr racked up 10 points (3-10 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and three blocks across 27 minutes during Monday's 125-112 loss to the Warriors.

    This was Sarr's first double-double of his NBA career. His offense is a major work in progress with the rookie hitting 36.2 percent from the field and 20.7 percent from beyond the arc through six games, but the counting stats are intriguing with 9.8 points, 7.0 rebounds, 1.7 assists, 2.8 blocks and 0.5 steals in 25.2 minutes through six appearances.

  • Wizards' Jordan Poole: Blocks four shots

    Poole notched 24 points (8-20 FG, 2-10 3Pt, 6-7 FT), one rebound, three assists, four blocks and three steals in 34 minutes during Monday's 125-112 loss to the Warriors.

    Poole posted a career-high four blocks in the loss, his 10th career outing with multiple blocks in a single game. Fantasy managers should be thrilled by the early returns from Poole this season as he continues to run the show for Washington. Through six games, he's averaging 22.5 points, 5.0 assists, 1.2 rebounds, 2.8 steals, 1.2 blocks and 4.0 three-pointers.

  • Wizards' Kyshawn George: Notches 20 points

    George totaled 20 points (7-19 FG, 6-17 3Pt), six rebounds, four assists and one steal in 38 minutes during Monday's 125-112 loss to Golden State.

    George's 20 points is a new career-high mark, as well as his workload of 38 minutes and six three-point makes. With Kyle Kuzma sidelined by a groin issue, George has been getting an extended look in the rotation. He has struggled overall, however, as he's shooting 31.5 percent from the field, 20.5 percent from beyond the arc and 66.7 percent from the line through six games.

  • Wizards' Carlton Carrington: Puts up solid numbers

    Carrington provided 16 points (7-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), eight rebounds and seven assists over 33 minutes during Monday's 125-112 loss to the Warriors.

    The No. 14 overall pick of the 2024 Draft continues to feature for the Wizards during his rookie season, as the franchise is wasting no time to get him heavily involved. His production has been sporadic which is to be expected, but there's a lot to like here from a fantasy perspective. Through six games, he's posting averages of 10.3 points, 4.8 assists, 4.3 rebounds and 0.8 steals in 29.2 minutes per contest.

  • Wizards' Jonas Valanciunas: Double-doubles in loss

    Valanciunas chipped in 16 points (6-10 FG, 4-4 FT), 12 rebounds and seven assists across 21 minutes during Monday's 125-112 loss to Golden State.

    This was Valanciunas' first double-double of the campaign, as he continues to be the focal point for the second unit. He has only one block to his name through six games, but he's been productive elsewhere with averages of 12.8 points, 8.2 rebounds and 3.3 assists.

  • Wizards' Marvin Bagley: Listed out for Monday

    Bagley (illness) will not play Monday against the Warriors.

    Bagley was unable to shake his questionable tag for this contest and remains day-to-day. Bagley hasn't been a consistent part of the rotation, so his absence should go unnoticed.

  • Wizards' Marvin Bagley: Dealing with illness

    Bagley is questionable for Monday's game against the Warriors due to a non-COVID illness.

    After playing 10 minutes in each of the first two games of the season, Bagley has played six or fewer minutes in three straight matchups. His potential absence would likely mean a few extra minutes for Richaun Holmes.

  • Wizards' Kyle Kuzma: Will remain out Monday

    Kuzma (groin) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Warriors.

    Kuzma will miss a third straight contest due to a right groin strain. In his absence, Kyshawn George has moved into the starting lineup, while Corey Kispert has seen an increased role off the bench. Kuzma's next chance to suit up will come Friday in Memphis.

  • Wizards' Johnny Davis: Shows promise off bench

    Davis registered nine points (4-5 FG, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, one assist and one steal across 18 minutes during Saturday's 118-98 loss to the Heat.

    Davis saw a sizable uptick in playing time, though one-third of his points were scored during the last few minutes of the fourth quarter in garbage time. Even so, this performance was a step forward for the former Wisconsin Badger, who had really struggled to get much going through his first three appearances of the year entering Saturday's matchup. Davis is currently buried on the bench behind Jordan Poole, Corey Kispert and Kyshawn George, so it's likely too soon to consider rostering Davis in most leagues.

  • Wizards' Jordan Poole: Scores 21 points vs. Miami

    Poole contributed 21 points (8-18 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three assists, two blocks and two steals in 31 minutes during Saturday's 118-98 loss to the Heat.

    Poole has scored at least 20 points in four of the first five games of the regular season, and he finished Saturday's contest as the Wizards' second-leading scorer behind Bilal Coulibaly (22). Through the first five games of the 2024-25 regular season, Poole is averaging 22.2 points, 5.4 assists, 1.2 rebounds and 2.8 steals over 30.4 minutes per contest.

  • Wizards' Alex Sarr: Four blocks against Miami

    Sarr ended with 17 points (7-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, three assists and four blocks in 27 minutes during Saturday's 118-98 loss to the Heat.

    Sarr has registered four blocks in back-to-back games and has logged at least two rejections in each of the first five games of the regular season. The No. 2 overall pick is averaging 9.8 points, 6.2 rebounds, 1.6 assists and 2.8 blocks over 24.8 minutes over the first five games of the 2024-25 regular season.

  • Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Team-leading 22 points Saturday

    Coulibaly racked up 22 points (8-12 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 4-6 FT), eight rebounds and two assists over 33 minutes during Saturday's 118-98 loss to the Heat.

    Coulibaly and Jordan Poole were the only Wizards players Saturday to reach the 20-point mark in a game that saw Washington shoot 41.8 percent from the field, including 7-for-35 from three-point range. Coulibaly averaged 8.4 points per game during the 2023-24 regular season, but he's scored 20-plus points in three of his last four outings. He's started the 2024-25 campaign averaging 19.4 points on 60.7 percent shooting (including 47.6 percent from three on 4.2 3PA/G), 6.2 rebounds, 2.6 assists and 1.2 steals over 34.0 minutes per game.
