Davis Bertans Might Sit Thursday

Washington Wizards forward Davis Bertans (knee) listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He struggled in Wednesday's contest, which could partly be due to the knee soreness. Deni Avdija would benefit the most, assuming Bertans is unable to suit up. Avdija would have decent streaming appeal with extended playing time.

Moritz Wagner Plays His Best Game Of The Season

Washington Wizards center Moritz Wagner played his best game of the season in a 135-116 loss to the Clippers on Tuesday. Wagner scored a season-high 21 points with seven rebounds and five assists while draining a three-pointer in 25 minutes.

Russell Westbrook Cleared To Suit Up Tuesday

Washington Wizards point guard Russell Westbrook has been given the green light to play in the second leg of the team's back-to-back Tuesday against the Clippers. Westbrook played in both legs of Washington's most recent back-to-back setting, with the concerns about him resting now appearing to be behind him. His presence limits the DFS upside […]

Ish Smith Out 6-8 Weeks

Washington Wizards guard Ish Smith (quadriceps) will be out for the next six to eight weeks with a quadriceps injury. The injury firmly cements Raul Neto in the backup point-guard role, and the Wizards will likely also use Bradley Beal as the primary ball-handler more often. Neto would be a great streamer whenever Russell Westbrook sits, […]

With three postponed games already on the schedule, Wednesday still has enough contests to make it more than worthwhile.

Some teams like the Magic […]

Washington Wizards guard Russell Westbrook is not on the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Houston Rockets.
