Kuzma has missed Washington's last seven games with a left rib sprain, but he's making good progress in his recovery. Encouragingly, Malcolm Brogdon, Kyshawn George and Corey Kispert were all present at Tuesday's practice. The last-place Wizards may soon have a healthy team, but don't Washington to rush any of its injured players back.
Kuzma has missed Washington's last seven games with a left rib sprain, but he's making good progress in his recovery. Encouragingly, Malcolm Brogdon, Kyshawn George and Corey Kispert were all present at Tuesday's practice. The last-place Wizards may soon have a healthy team, but don't Washington to rush any of its injured players back.
George and Kispert were injured during Washington's December 3 loss to Cleveland and have not played since. Their absences have freed up rotation minutes for Johnny Davis, who should not be streamed in fantasy leagues. Fantasy managers should focus on Bilal Coulibaly, Bub Carrington, and Justin Champagnie.
Both wings will remain sidelined, and with Malcolm Brogdon still out as well, rookie Bub Carrington should be in line for another start. Jared Butler and Johnny Davis should also play extended roles off the bench, with Butler coming off of a 14/5/7 performance in their last game.
Kispert and George were injured during the first half of Tuesday's loss to Cleveland, and Saturday's game will be the second they'll miss. With Malcolm Brogdon (knee) joining them on the sideline, Bub Carrington will have increased fantasy value out of necessity. Johnny Davis may play rotation minutes, but he is not worth streaming in most leagues.
