Corey Kispert (thumb) will be sidelined for at least two games. After injuring his left thumb during Saturday's defeat against the Denver Nuggets, Kispert has returned to Washington for an examination by team doctors. The Wizards will finish a seven-game road trip this week, facing the Portland Trail Blazers on Monday night before heading to Salt Lake City to take on the Utah Jazz on Wednesday.
Bub Carrington and
AJ Johnson look set to receive more playing time off the bench with Kispert out.

Corey Kispert (ankle) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Denver Nuggets due to a left ankle sprain. This will mark his second consecutive game missed. With multiple players on the injury list, younger players like Carlton Carrington,
Johnny Davis, and
Jared Butler are expected to see increased playing time. Kispert has been averaging 27.8 minutes per game, so there will be plenty of minutes available for others to step up. His next chance to return is set for Sunday's matchup against Memphis.

Washington Wizards guard/forward
Corey Kispert (ankle) will miss his first game of the season on Thursday against Dallas. He has been ruled out with a left ankle sprain, joining
Kyle Kuzma (ribs) and
Kyshawn George (ankle) on the shelf. These three have all averaged at least 26 minutes of action per game this season. This leaves a lot of minutes to be filled for the rest of the gang. Carlton Carrington and
Jared Butler should getter a bigger workload on Thursday, with
Johnny Davis also in the mix for an expanded role.
