Bilal Coulibaly Injured On Sunday

Washington Wizards forward Bilal Coulibaly (pelvis) was injured during Sunday's loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers and didn't return to the contest. He got the start in place of Deni Advija (heel), who missed his second consecutive contest. Unfortunately, the rookie lasted just six minutes after suffering a pelvic contusion. Coulibaly was coming off a productive […]

Deni Avdija Out Again On Sunday Evening

Washington Wizards forward Deni Avdia (heel) remains out on Sunday evening versus the Cavaliers. The 23-year-old has a heel contusion, keeping him off the floor for Friday's matchup against OKC. He was questionable, so he's seemingly getting close to returning. But until Avdija is back in the lineup, Bilal Coulibaly, who had 11 points, five […]

Expert NBA DFS Picks for DraftKings and FanDuel (2/24/24)

Welcome to the weekend, RotoBallers. After a monster double-slate return to form in the NBA yesterday, the scheduling gods have saddled us with a weak three-gamer on a Saturday. None of the matchups profile as exciting game environments to target, but everything is relative to the slate and the Celtics-Knicks game has the highest implied […]

Deni Avdija Ruled Out On Friday

Washington Wizards forward Deni Avdija (heel) has been ruled out ahead of Friday's game against the Oklahoma City Thunder. This is a bit surprising given that Avdija wasn't included on the most recent injury report. Bilal Coulibaly would normally be the favorite to start, but he's already in the starting five with Jordan Poole being […]

Kyle Kuzma Removed From Injury Report

Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma is no longer on the team's official injury report after missing their last game right before the All-Star break.

Justin Champagnie Signs 10-Day Contract With Wizards

The Washington Wizards are signing forward Justin Champagnie to a 10-day contract, according to Shams Charania of The Athletic.
