Tre Johnson Iffy for Thursday

Washington Wizards guard/forward Tre Johnson (foot) is questionable for Thursday's game against Chicago after missing the last two contests due to a right foot sprain. If the rookie lottery pick remains sidelined, Bub Carrington should continue to see solid run after posting 14 points, two three-pointers, four rebounds, and seven assists in 32 minutes Tuesday, giving him some deep-league streaming appeal for assists. Jamir Watkins could also remain part of the rotation after finishing with 13 points and seven rebounds in 22 minutes. Jaden Hardy (back) could also benefit if available.

Bilal Coulibaly Questionable Against Bulls

Washington Wizards guard/forward Bilal Coulibaly (foot) is questionable for Thursday's game against Chicago after finishing with 19 points, three rebounds, one assist, and two blocks in 24 minutes in Tuesday's loss to the Bulls. If he sits, Washington could lean more on Will Riley and Jamir Watkins for additional minutes on the wing. Riley logged two points, six rebounds, three assists, and two steals in 31 minutes on Tuesday and remains a deep league option for managers seeking late production. Watkins could also see increased run after posting 13 points and seven rebounds in 22 minutes

Alexandre Sarr  • PF  •  Wizards

Alexandre Sarr Out Again Thursday

Washington Wizards center Alexandre Sarr (toe) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Chicago and has not played since March 27, raising the possibility he could miss the rest of the regular season. His continued absence should keep Julian Reese in a significant role after he posted 17 points, 11 rebounds, four assists, three steals, and two blocks in 36 minutes in a recent start, making him an intriguing deep-league streaming option. Anthony Gill (neck) could factor into the rotation if healthy, though Reese offers more fantasy appeal.

Tre Johnson  • SG  •  Wizards

Tre Johnson Ruled Out Against Bulls

Washington Wizards guard/forward Tre Johnson (foot) won't suit up against the Chicago Bulls on Tuesday. The 20-year-old guard will miss his second consecutive contest due to a right foot sprain. His next opportunity to return is Thursday against the Bulls. With Johnson sidelined, Sharife Cooper and Jamir Watkins will likely see extended minutes. Watkins could be a viable streaming option this evening after he posted 20 points, eight rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 44 minutes during Sunday's 121-115 loss to the Nets.

Anthony Davis  • C  •  Wizards

Anthony Davis Not Expected to Play Again This Season

According to Chase Hughes of Monumental Sports Network, Washington Wizards head coach Brian Keefe said Tuesday that forward/center Anthony Davis (finger) isn't expected to play again this season. The 33-year-old big man has been out of action since January 8 due to ligament damage in his left hand. Davis finishes the 2025-26 campaign with averages of 20.4 points, 11.1 rebounds, 2.8 assists, 1.7 blocks, and 1.1 steals per outing in 20 regular-season games with Dallas before being dealt to Washington on February 4.

Trae Young  • PG  •  Wizards

Trae Young's Season is Likely Over

According to Chase Hughes of Monumental Sports Network, Washington Wizards guard Trae Young (back, quadriceps) isn't expected to suit up again this season. Young hasn't played since March 16 against the Golden State Warriors due to lingering back and quadriceps issues. The 27-year-old has appeared in just 15 games this season, averaging 17.9 points, 8.0 assists, 2.0 rebounds, and 1.8 three-pointers in 25.6 minutes per contest during an injury-riddled campaign.

Justin Champagnie  • SG  •  Wizards

Justin Champagnie Active Saturday

Washington Wizards forward Justin Champagnie (knee) is available on Saturday against the Miami Heat. He has been upgraded from a questionable status. Champagnie will come off the bench on Saturday but should still see a healthy amount of minutes. He has averaged 13.7 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 3.0 assists over the last three games, making him a sneaky option for fantasy managers. However, there's a significant risk involved with every Wizards player, as their minutes tend to fluctuate.

Bilal Coulibaly  • SG  •  Wizards  |  Tre Johnson  • SG  •  Wizards

Bilal Coulibaly, Tre Johnson Available Against Heat

Washington Wizards guard/forward Bilal Coulibaly (heel) and guard/forward Tre Johnson (foot) will suit up on Saturday against the Miami Heat. It was initially unclear whether they would play after the team listed them as questionable on the injury report. The two will start the contest alongside Bub Carrington, Will Riley, and Anthony Gill. Due to his versatility, Coulibaly has more fantasy value compared to Johnson, but he needs to stay on the floor to meet fantasy expectations. On Wednesday night, Coulibaly logged just 19 minutes against Philadelphia, finishing with 12 points, two rebounds, and one steal.

Tristan Vukcevic  • PF  •  Wizards  |  Alexandre Sarr  • PF  •  Wizards

Alexandre Sarr, Tristan Vukcevic Won't Play Saturday

Washington Wizards center Alexandre Sarr (toe) and forward/center Tristan Vukcevic (knee) won't be in action on Saturday against the Miami Heat. Washington listed both players as questionable on the initial injury report and has ruled them out ahead of tip-off. Sarr will miss his fourth consecutive game. Vukcevic will join the Frenchman on the sidelines after filling in for him as the starting center. On Saturday, Anthony Gill will start at center. Gill will be an interesting fantasy option after amassing 21 points, six rebounds, and six assists in Wednesday's loss to Philadelphia. Julian Reese will likely also return to the rotation.
Apr 4   
Justin Champagnie  • SG  •  Wizards

Justin Champagnie Questionable Saturday

Washington Wizards forward Justin Champagnie (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Miami Heat. He was added to the injury report late with a right knee contusion. Champagnie has had a few strong outings recently, including a 17-point, seven-rebound effort in Wednesday's loss to Philadelphia. If Champagnie is unavailable against the Heat, Jamir Watkins and Leaky Black will get a chance to contribute more. However, neither is very reliable in fantasy.
Apr 4   
Tristan Vukcevic  • PF  •  Wizards

Tristan Vukcevic Iffy for Saturday

Washington Wizards forward/center Tristan Vukcevic (knee) is questionable for Saturday's matchup with the Miami Heat. The 23-year-old has been a starter in each of the last three games, but he might have to make way now in the lineup due to a right knee contusion. Alexandre Sarr (toe) is also questionable, so Julian Reese may get a new opportunity to impress. The Maryland product has averaged 13.8 points and 13.0 rebounds over his last five outings. Due to his two-way status, the Wizards have used Reese in only one of the last four games. However, starting Saturday, Reese is eligible to suit up for all of Washington's remaining games this season, so he might have a regular role for the rest of the way.

Trae Young  • PG  •  Wizards

Trae Young Remains Out Saturday

Washington Wizards point guard Trae Young (back, quadriceps) will miss a 10th straight game on Saturday against the Miami Heat. Young made five appearances with his new squad before sustaining a right quadriceps contusion in mid-March. He is also dealing with lower back pain. With only a week left in the regular season, it appears likely that Young's return won't happen until the 2026-27 campaign. Bub Carrington and Sharife Cooper will continue to split the point guard duties in Saturday's game. Carrington holds the starting job and has enjoyed a good nine-game stretch, with averages of 14.4 points, 2.4 rebounds, and 4.8 assists.
Apr 4   
Tre Johnson  • SG  •  Wizards

Tre Johnson Could Miss Heat Matchup

Washington Wizards guard/forward Tre Johnson (foot) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Miami Heat due to a right foot sprain. Bub Carrington could take on more ballhandling duties after finishing with 13 points, seven assists, and three three-pointers in 31 minutes last game. Jamir Watkins added seven points, five rebounds, and two assists in 19 minutes, while Jaden Hardy chipped in seven points with a three-pointer and a steal across 25 minutes. Carrington looks like the safest streaming option if Johnson sits, while Watkins and Hardy could also see expanded roles.
Apr 3   
Bilal Coulibaly  • SG  •  Wizards

Bilal Coulibaly Questionable Against Miami

Washington Wizards guard/forward Bilal Coulibaly (heel) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Miami Heat as he continues to manage soreness. Will Riley could again benefit after producing 18 points, three assists, and two three-pointers in 32 minutes last game, while Justin Champagnie added 17 points, seven rebounds, one steal, and one block in 21 minutes off the bench. Riley looks like a solid short-term streaming option if Coulibaly is ruled out, while Champagnie and Jaden Hardy could also see increased opportunities in the rotation.
Apr 3   
Alexandre Sarr  • PF  •  Wizards

Alexandre Sarr Could Miss Fourth Straight Game

Washington Wizards center Alexandre Sarr (toe) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Miami Heat as he attempts to return from a three-game absence. If he remains out, Anthony Gill could again see significant minutes after delivering 21 points, six rebounds, six assists, and three three-pointers in 35 minutes off the bench last game. Julian Reese may also factor into the rotation after posting eight points and 13 rebounds in his last appearance. Gill shapes up as a deep-league streamer if Sarr sits, while Tristan Vukcevic's (knee) status could further impact the center rotation.

Kyshawn George  • SF  •  Wizards

Kyshawn George Won't Return This Season

Washington Wizards guard/forward Kyshawn George (elbow) will miss the rest of the 2025-2026 season, according to Michael Scotto. George has been out since March 2 due to a Grade 2 distal UCL tear in his left elbow. The Wizards aren't playing for anything at this point in the season. They've decided to let George sit out the final few weeks of the regular season and get ready for the 2026-2027 campaign. Over 48 games, George averaged 14.8 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 4.5 assists across 28.9 minutes per game. The 22-year-old made a nice jump in most statistical categories compared to his rookie season. He will hopefully be a key piece of the rebuilding Wizards roster going forward.
Apr 2   
Anthony Gill  • PF  •  Wizards

Anthony Gill Good to Go Monday

Washington Wizards forward Anthony Gill (ankle) will play Monday against the Lakers after being listed as questionable earlier in the day. The veteran could see steady minutes with Alexandre Sarr (toe) and Bilal Coulibaly (heel) both sidelined, giving Washington few reliable frontcourt options. Gill has quietly produced 12.2 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.8 assists, and 1.6 steals across his last five appearances, making him a possible deep-league option for managers needing efficient scoring and steals. Tristan Vukcevic and Justin Champagnie should also continue seeing stable roles with the Wizards short on size.

Bilal Coulibaly  • SG  •  Wizards

Bilal Coulibaly Will Not Play Monday

Washington Wizards guard/forward Bilal Coulibaly (heel) will miss Monday's game against the Lakers, creating more minutes on the wing for a young rotation already missing Alexandre Sarr (toe). Will Riley could be in line for a larger role after scoring 14 points with one three-pointer in 26 minutes last game, while Justin Champagnie added 10 points, one three-pointer, and one block in 24 minutes. Jamir Watkins also chipped in eight points in 17 minutes. Riley stands out as the most interesting deep-league streamer for scoring, while Champagnie offers modest category depth if minutes hold.

Alexandre Sarr  • PF  •  Wizards

Alexandre Sarr Ruled Out Vs. Lakers

Washington Wizards center Alexandre Sarr (toe) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Lakers after being downgraded from questionable, leaving Washington thin in the frontcourt. Tristan Vukcevic could see more opportunity despite playing just 16 minutes in his last start, where he finished with 10 points, two three-pointers, and one block. Anthony Gill logged heavier minutes off the bench with 31 and contributed eight points, three rebounds, and one steal. Vukcevic could be worth a look in deeper leagues for managers needing a big man who can hit the occasional three, while Gill is more of a low-upside option who may help a bit in rebounds if his minutes stay elevated.
Mar 30   
Bub Carrington  • PG  •  Wizards

Bub Carrington Exits Early Sunday Due to Cramping

Washington Wizards guard Bub Carrington didn't finish Sunday's loss to the Portland Trail Blazers due to muscle cramping. He left the action in the third quarter, wrapping up his night with 11 points, two rebounds, four assists, one steal, and four turnovers in 22 minutes. Since this was the first game of a back-to-back for Washington, Carrington might sit out Monday's contest against the Los Angeles Lakers. Tre Johnson (foot) and Sharife Cooper could have more playing opportunities without Carrington.
