Wizards' Kyshawn George: Questionable for Wednesday
George is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Jazz due to a right knee contusion.
The fact that George is questionable suggests a decision on the rookie's status will be made closer to the 9 p.m. ET tipoff. George has started in each of his last 23 appearances, averaging 10.5 points, 5.1 rebounds, 2.7 assists, 1.2 steals and 1.1 blocks per game over that span.

Smart (illness) has been ruled out for Wednesday's matchup against the Jazz.
Smart will miss his third consecutive contest due to a non-COVID illness. His next chance to play will come Friday against Orlando. AJ Johnson and Colby Jones are candidates for a bump in minutes, as Jordan Poole (elbow) is expected to join Smart and Malcolm Brogdon (ankle) on the sideline.

Wizards' Malcolm Brogdon: Remaining sidelined
Brogdon (ankle) won't play in Wednesday's game versus the Jazz.
Brogdon will miss his 14th straight contest Wednesday due to a left ankle sprain. Until Washington provides a timetable for his return, the veteran guard can be considered week-to-week with the Wizardsa already being eliminated from playoff contention.

Wizards' Jordan Poole: Unlikely to play against Utah
Poole is listed as doubtful for Wednesday's game versus the Jazz due to a right elbow contusion.
Poole is expected to miss Wednesday's contest due to an elbow injury after suiting up in each of Washington's last six contests. If Poole is further downgraded to out, Bub Carrington will likely receive increased playing time.

Middleton (ankles) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Utah.
Middleton will get the night off while the club limits his availability due to bilateral ankle injury management. The veteran forward's next chance to play will come Friday against Orlando. Justin Champagnie and Anthony Gill are candidates for a bump in minutes due to Middleton being sidelined.

Wizards' Corey Kispert: Out for season after thumb surgery
Kispert underwent successful surgery on his left thumb Tuesday and is expected to make a full recovery and be ready for the start of next season.
Kispert suffered the ligament tear in his left thumb Saturday in the loss to the Nuggets. The 25-year-old forward played in 61 games for the Wizards this season, averaging 11.6 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.7 assists per game, shooting 45.1 percent from the floor and 36.4 percent from beyond the arc.

Wizards' Jordan Poole: Sees limited run
Poole totaled nine points (3-6 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound, one assist and one steal over 11 minutes during Monday's 112-97 loss to Portland.
This was a bizarre game for the Wizards, as Poole and Khris Middleton were both pulled at halftime with 11 minutes apiece. The Wizards used an 11-man rotation, giving extended run to guys like Jaylen Martin and AJ Johnson. If Monday was any indication, Washington could be a fantasy mess in the final weeks.

Wizards' Khris Middleton: Plays just 11 minutes in loss
Middleton totaled four points (2-3 FG) and three rebounds in 11 minutes during Monday's 112-97 loss to the Trail Blazers.
Middleton and Jordan Poole were pulled at halftime of this game even though the team was already shorthanded. That allowed players such as AJ Johnson and Jaylen Martin to see extended run, and they made the most of their opportunity. The Wizards don't have much to play for in the final stretch, so Middleton could be a headache to roster in fantasy.

Wizards' Tristan Vukcevic: Pours in 17 points
Vukcevic provided 17 points (6-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), eight rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal in 24 minutes during Monday's 112-97 loss to the Trail Blazers.
Vukcevic finished one point shy of his season-best mark (18) in the loss. The Wizards were shorthanded Monday, and they rolled with an 11-man rotation while pulling Khris Middleton and Jordan Poole at halftime. Meanwhile, Richaun Holmes never saw the floor. This could be an indication that Vukcevic is going to get an extended look in the final weeks.

Wizards' AJ Johnson: Makes most of start
Johnson racked up eight points (3-8 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, four assists and one block over 35 minutes during Monday's 112-97 loss to Portland.
Johnson, who was making his first career start Monday, made the most of his minutes in the loss. Marcus Smart (illness) and Malcolm Brogdon (ankle) were both sidelined, while Jordan Poole and Khris Middleton were pulled at halftime as a coach's decision. The Wizards don't have much to play for in the final weeks, so Johnson could get more looks like these.

Wizards' Jaylen Martin: Impresses off bench
Martin registered 11 points (5-10 FG, 1-3 3Pt), six rebounds, three assists and two steals in 28 minutes during Monday's 112-97 loss to Portland.
Making just his fourth appearance for the Wizards, Martin recorded multiple career-highs in his first extended workload -- the Wizards benched Jordan Poole and Khris Middleton at halftime of this contest. Martin, who is on a two-way contract, is likely to get more opportunities to impress down the stretch with the Wizards in player evaluation mode.

Wizards' Justin Champagnie: Coming off bench against Portland
Champagnie is not in the starting lineup for Monday's game against Portland.
The Wizards will give AJ Johnson a chance in the first unit, likely translating to lesser streaming appeal for Champagnie in fantasy leagues. Through his last eight appearances off the bench, Champagnie has averaged 6.4 points, 5.1 rebounds, 1.1 assists, 0.9 steals and 0.9 blocks in 15.9 minutes.

Wizards' AJ Johnson: Making first career start Monday
Johnson will start in Monday's game against Portland.
The rookie first-round pick will draw the start for the first time in his career due to Marcus Smart (illness) and Malcolm Brogdon (ankle) being sidelined. Johnson has received inconsistent playing time at the NBA level since being traded to the Wizards on Feb. 5, and in six games since, he has averaged 3.7 points, 2.5 assists and 1.2 rebounds across 11.8 minutes per game.

Wizards' Corey Kispert: Getting thumb examined
Kispert traveled to Washington on Monday to get his sprained left thumb examined by team doctors, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.
Kispert suffered the injury during the Wizards' win over the Nuggets on Saturday. He was already ruled out for Monday's bout against Portland, and it appears the injury may be severe enough to warrant a multi-game absence. An update from the Wizards regarding Kispert's thumb should be announced once he's undergone further tests.

Wizards' Marcus Smart: Iffy for Monday
Smart (illness) is listed as questionable for Monday's game against Portland.
Smart is in jeopardy of missing his second consecutive contest due to the non-COVID illness. If the veteran combo guard remains sidelined, AJ Johnson and Bub Carrington could see a bump in minutes.

Kispert (thumb) has been ruled out for Monday's game against Portland.
