Wizards' Keshon Gilbert: Back with parent club
RotowireTheWizards recalledGilbert from the G League's Capital City Go-Go on Friday.
Gilbert, who signed a 10-day pact with the Wizards on Feb. 6, joined Capital City for its 119-107 loss to the Greensboro Swarm on Thursday, during which he tallied 15 points (6-18 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven assists, six rebounds and two steals in 36 minutes. The 22-year-old guard's contract is set to expire before Thursday's game against Indiana, so he'll likely return to the Go-Go unless he lands a second 10-day deal.

RotowireTheWizards recalledRichmond from the G League's Capital City Go-Go on Friday.
Richmond, who signed a 10-day contract with Washington on Wednesday, joined the Go-Go for Thursday's 119-107 loss to the Greensboro Swarm, during which he posted 24 points (9-14 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), six rebounds, four assists and three steals in 36 minutes. His next opportunity to suit up for the Wizards will come Thursday against the Pacers.
... See More... See LessWizards' Bub Carrington: Quiet in 22 minutes
RotowireCarrington had eight points (4-9 FG, 0-3 3Pt), three rebounds and four assists across 22 minutes during Wednesday's 138-113 loss to the Cavaliers.
The big takeaway from this game was that Carrington started alongside Tre Johnson in the backcourt in the rookie's return to action, and that could be a sign of things to come. Carrington's overall fantasy appeal is still lacking, however, as he's averaging 11.5 points, 4.5 assists and 2.3 rebounds on 41.8 percent shooting over his last eight games.
... See More... See LessWizards' Sharife Cooper: Plays well off bench
RotowireCooper finished Wednesday's 138-113 loss to the Cavaliers with 11 points (4-9 FG, 3-5 3Pt), five rebounds, five assists, one block and one steal across 24 minutes.
Cooper continues to see opportunities on a Washington team that has been hammered by injuries. Over his last seven games, he's averaging 9.6 points, 3.9 rebounds, 3.1 assists and 1.1 three-pointers in 21.6 minutes per contest.
... See More... See LessWizards' Tre Johnson: Puts up 10 points in return
RotowireJohnson (ankle) amassed 10 points (4-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 1-1 FT), three rebounds, two assists and two steals across 18 minutes during Wednesday's 138-113 loss to the Cavaliers.
Back in action following a six-game absence due to a left ankle sprain, Johnson stepped back into the starting five, sharing the backcourt with Bub Carrington. Before he had sustained the injury, Johnson had been starting ahead of Carrington at point guard, but theWizards may be able to make room for both players on the top unit until Trae Young (knee) is ready to make his team debut. Regardless of how he's deployed coming out of the All-Star break, Johnson will likely see his minutes climb back into the 20s during the Wizards' next game Feb. 19 versus the Pacers.
... See More... See LessWizards' Jaden Hardy: Strong debut in loss
RotowireHardy posted 11 points (3-7 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and one assist in 15 minutes during Wednesday's 138-113 loss to the Cavaliers.
Hardy, who made his Washington debut after being acquired from Dallas at the trade deadline, put together a strong showing in limited playing time off the bench. Player development is going to be a big focus for theWizards after the All-Star break, so additional opportunities may arise for the 23-year-old guard.
... See More... See LessWizards' Alex Sarr: Out two weeks with hamstring strain
RotowireTheWizards announced Thursday thatSarr has been diagnosed with a right hamstring strain and is expected to face a two-week recovery timeline.
Sarr sat out Wednesday's 138-113 loss to the Cavaliers with what the team had classified as right hamstring tightness, but follow-up tests confirmed that the second-year big man is dealing with a strain. As a result of the injury, Sarr will sit out the Castrol Rising Stars exhibition at All-Star weekend in Los Angeles, and he'll likely miss at least a handful of contests coming out of the All-Star break. Tristan Vukcevic (illness) joined Sarr on the sideline for Wednesday's loss, but Vukcevic will likely be ready to fill in for Sarr as the Wizards' starting center in the team's next game Feb. 19 versus the Pacers.
... See More... See LessWizards' Kadary Richmond: Scores five points in debut
RotowireRichmond racked up five points (2-2 FG, 1-1 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across six minutes during Wednesday's 138-113 loss to Cleveland.
Fresh off signing a 10-day contract with theWizards, Richmond made his debut, scoring five points off the bench. Washington is clearly going to prioritize youth over winning, so we could see several players coming in and out of the rotation over the next couple of months. At this stage, there is no reason to be adding Richmond, even in deeper formats.
... See More... See LessWizards' Kyshawn George: Drops 17 points Wednesday
RotowireGeorge registered 17 points (4-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 8-8 FT), five rebounds, three assists and one steal in 24 minutes during Wednesday's 138-113 loss to the Cavaliers.
George tallied double digits for the second straight game, although his playing time remains underwhelming. With Washington clearly shifting into tank mode, it appears as though George is not only going to miss games moving forward, but his playing time could be limited on most nights. While he does remain a must-roster player, managers are going to have to be prepared for some uncertainty.
... See More... See LessWizards' Will Riley: Struggles in loss
RotowireRiley posted four points (1-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four rebounds and two assists over 29 minutes during Wednesday's 138-113 loss to the Cavaliers.
Riley scored in single digits for the second straight game, seemingly having lost his shooting touch. Despite the poor production, it does appear as though he could be locked into a relatively consistent role moving forward, something that certainly can't be said for a number of his teammates. Assuming you can deal with some inefficient shooting, Riley remains someone worth rostering given the fact that he should see close to 30 minutes per game.
... See More... See LessWizards' Justin Champagnie: Coming off bench Wednesday
RotowireChampagnie isn't part of the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against Cleveland.
Champagnie's streak of three consecutive starts will come to a close as theWizards trot out a lineup of Bub Carrington, Tre Johnson, Kyshawn George, Bilal Coulibaly and Jamir Watkins. With Alex Sarr (hamstring) and Tristan Vukcevic (illness) sidelined, Champagnie will likely be tasked with plenty of playing time despite the reserve role.
... See More... See LessWizards' Jamir Watkins: Starting Wednesday
RotowireWatkins will start Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.
With theWizards shorthanded in the frontcourt, Watkins will step back into the starting five. As a starter this season (three games), the rookie second-rounder has averaged 6.0 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.3 assists in 26.7 minutes per contest.
... See More... See LessWizards' Alex Sarr: Won't play Wednesday
RotowireSarr (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's game against Cleveland.
Sarr will miss theWizards' final game before the All-Star break due to right hamstring tightness. With Tristan Vukcevic (illness) also sidelined, Washington will have to get creative with its center minutes. Anthony Gill figures to be one of the top options at the five spot. The Wizards will come out of the All-Star break with a back-to-back set against Indiana that begins Feb. 19.
... See More... See LessWizards' Tristan Vukcevic: Won't play Wednesday
RotowireVukcevic (illness) is out for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.
This is bad news for a Washington team that might also be without Alex Sarr (questionable, hamstring). With that in mind, Anthony Gill could see a sizable workload for theWizards on Wednesday.
... See More... See LessWizards' Alex Sarr: Downgraded to questionable
RotowireSarr is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers with right hamstring tightness.
Sarr was a late addition to the injury report, and that's usually a bad sign in fantasy hoops. Plus, theWizards have been super cautious with all their key players. If Sarr is unable to play, Anthony Gill is the next man up at center with Tristan Vukcevic (illness) ruled out.
... See More... See LessWizards' Tristan Vukcevic: Questionable to play Wednesday
RotowireVukcevic is questionable to play Wednesday against the Cavaliers due to an illness.
Vukcevic was not on the injury report until this morning, indicating that his availability for Wednesday's game may be in jeopardy. If he is ultimately unable to go, Anthony Gill (hand) and Will Riley will likely see extended playing time as a result.
... See More... See LessWizards' Anthony Gill: Will play Wednesday
RotowireGill (hand) will play Wednesday against the Cavaliers.
TheWizards do have a cleaner injury report than usual, so Gill is likely to be deployed as an emergency depth option Wednesday.
... See More... See LessWizards' Kyshawn George: Cleared to play
RotowireGeorge (ankle) will play Wednesday against the Cavaliers.
Both George and Bilal Coulibaly (heel) will shake off questionable tags for this contest. George has been quiet in his six most recent outings with 12.2 points, 3.7 assists, 2.7 rebounds, 1.0 blocks and 1.3 three-pointers in 24.1 minutes per game.
... See More... See LessWizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Good to go Wednesday
RotowireCoulibaly (heel) is good to go for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.
Coulibaly will shake off a questionable tag to appear in this contest. He's coming off a dud Sunday against the Heat with seven points, four rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 34 minutes.
... See More... See LessWizards' Kadary Richmond: Signs with Wizards
RotowireRichmond signed a 10-day contract with theWizards on Wednesday.
The Wizards have a lot of injuries currently, so Richmond is being called up to provide some depth. With the Capital City Go-Go in the G League, Richmond holds averages of 8.3 points, 3.9 rebounds, 2.9 assists, and 1.3 steals per game.
