Kyle Kuzma Starting Tuesday Night
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (knee) will play and start Tuesday versus the Detroit Pistons. Kuzma missed Sunday's game with knee soreness, but will make his return to the starting lineup against Detroit. Anthony Gil will move back to the bench and Deni Avdija should see a slight dip in minutes with Kuzma's return. The […]
Monte Morris Questionable Despite Being Week-To-Week
Washington Wizards guard Monte Morris (back) is listed as questionable for Tuesday's game versus the Detroit Pistons. The Wizards recently noted Morris was "week-to-week" as he continues to deal with a back injury, so we won't put too much stock into the questionable tag. Delon Wright has been fantastic as the starter and should be […]
Kyle Kuzma Listed As Questionable Again Tuesday
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (knee) is questionable to play versus the Detroit Pistons on Tuesday. Kuzma sat out last game with a knee injury and his status is murky for their next game as well. Anthony Gil started last game, but it was Deni Avdija who was the main benefactor of Kuzma's absence. If […]

Early-Week Fantasy Basketball Category Streamers for Week 20
It's time for the playoffs! Most leagues start the playoffs this week unless you are in a non-typical format. You simply can't get too attached to anyone this time of year. If you have a stud that is going to be out more than a week or someone who's badly underperforming- just cut bait and […]
Deni Avdija Available To Play Sunday
Washington Wizards forward Deni Avdija (illness) is available to play Sunday versus the Milwaukee Bucks. Avdija was a late addition to the injury report with a stomach illness, but it is not serious enough to force him to sit. With the Wizards missing Kyle Kuzma (knee), Avdija should be sprung into a prominent role assuming […]
Kyle Kuzma Hurts His Knee Saturday
Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma is in doubt for Sunday's meeting with Milwaukee after hurting his knee Saturday against Toronto. He banged knees with a Raptors player in the first half and was able to finish the game, but Kuzma was seen leaving the arena with a limp. The 27-year-old posted 15 points on 5-for-12 […]
Monte Morris Out Again Versus The Raptors
Washington Wizards guard Monte Morris (back) remains out for Saturday's meeting with the Toronto Raptors. Morris will now miss his fourth straight contest because of low back soreness, meaning Delon Wright will take his sport in the rotation.

DraftKings and FanDuel Daily Fantasy Basketball Picks (3/2/23): NBA DFS Lineups
A palindromic date brings us four games in the Association tonight. We already know that NBA DFS is not for the faint of heart with all of the load management issues, but tonight seems particularly tough. Like so tough that wiping your ass with 24-grit sandpaper might sound more appealing. 13 players have already been […]
Kristaps Porzingis Removed From The Injury Report
Washington Wizards forward Kristaps Porzingis (knee) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Thursday's meeting with Toronto. The veteran missed the last two games with left knee soreness, allowing Deni Avdija to enter the starting lineup. However, Avidja struggled while Porzingis was sidelined, combining for only 12 points, so his return to the bench […]
Monte Morris Out Again On Thursday
Washington Wizards guard Monte Morris (back) is out for Thursday's contest versus the visiting Toronto Raptors, marking his third straight absence because of low back soreness. Delon Wright has been starting in Morris' place, with the 30-year-old going for nine points, four assists, and one block against the Atlanta Hawks on Tuesday evening. That said, […]
Bradley Beal Sinks Atlanta With 37 Points
Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal went off against the Atlanta Hawks on Tuesday night en route to a three-point win which kept them in the play-in race in the East.

Monte Morris Will Sit Out Tuesday's Game
Washington Wizards guard Monte Morris (back) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the Atlanta Hawks. Morris has been in and out of the lineup over the past few weeks due to back soreness and may continue to be hampered by the injury moving forward. Delon Wright will likely start and is a good […]
Kristaps Porzingis Downgraded To Out On Tuesday
Washington Wizards center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) has been downgraded from doubtful to out on Tuesday against the Atlanta Hawks. Hopefully, there weren't any fantasy managers depending on Porzingis because the doubtful status doesn't usually turn out well when tipoff comes closer. While he remains sidelined, Daniel Gafford and Deni Avdija should see the most opportunities […]

Monte Morris Listed As Questionable Tuesday
Washington Wizards guard Monte Morris (back) is questionable to play Tuesday against the Atlanta Hawks. Morris continues to deal with back soreness, but may be able to play through it on Tuesday. If Morris remains out, Delon Wright should get another spot start and is a good option for assists and steals while Morris remains […]
Kristaps Porzingis Doubtful To Play Tuesday
Washington Wizards forward/center Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is doubtful to play Tuesday against the Atlanta Hawks. Porzingis is trending towards a second straight absence due to knee soreness which would likely pave the way for another start from Deni Avdija. Avdija did not perform well in the last start but has some upside due to his […]

Fantasy Basketball Deeper-League Waiver Wire Adds for Week 19: Malaki Branham, Mark Williams, Josh Richardson
The deeper a fantasy basketball league, the harder it is to hit a winner with your last few picks. It is also harder to find decent help from the waiver wire if your late-round picks don't do you justice. If you picked up a few stinkers, don't lose hope just yet. I will try to […]
Monte Morris Out, Delon Wright Starting Versus Bulls
Washington Wizards guard Monte Morris (back) won't play on Sunday versus the Chicago Bulls. As a result, Delon Wright will take his place in the lineup. Wright has averaged 7.0 assists, 4.5 rebounds, and 3.5 points in two starts this season. However, with Kristaps Porzingis (knee) sidelined, Wright's scoring total may be much higher.
Kristaps Porzingis Out With Knee Soreness Against Chicago
Washington Wizards forward Kristaps Porzingis (knee) is out on Sunday against the Chicago Bulls. The veteran has a sore left knee, which is nothing new, meaning he may be back in the lineup for Tuesday's meeting in Atlanta. But until Porzingis returns, Deni Avdija is expected to take his spot in the rotation. Avdija has […]

The Thunder lost in overtime last night, preventing me from getting a clean sweep on the first slate back from the break. They led for large stretches of that game and blew a lead late in the fourth before losing by just one point in the extra frame, too. These things happen, but I was […]
Bradley Beal Misses Practice Again, Remains Questionable
Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal (knee) missed Wednesday's practice and has officially missed Thursday's practice as well, but is listed as questionable on the injury report for Friday's game against the New York Knicks.

Bradley Beal Misses Wednesday's Practice
Washington Wizards guard Bradley Beal (knee) was unable to participate in Wednesday's practice.

Washington Wizards guard Jordan Goodwin had his two-way contract officially converted to a standard NBA contract after proving that he can help out in the backcourt rotation. The 24-year-old had a good stretch of four games when the Wizards were struggling with a lot of injuries to their backcourt and he's been able to provide […]
