Wizards' Johnny Davis: Heads to G League
The Wizards assigned Davis to the G League's Capital City Go-Go on Friday.
Davis has played double-digit minutes only three times for the Wizards this season and hasn't seen the court at all on five occasions. The 2022 No. 10 overall pick has seen his playing time drop in back-to-back seasons after averaging 15.1 minutes per game as a rookie. Davis will likely play a major role for Captial City against College Park on Friday night.

Wizards' Marvin Bagley: Effective in first start Thursday
Bagley produced 16 points (7-11 FG, 2-3 3Pt), eight rebounds and two steals across 24 minutes during Thursday's 137-101 loss to Dallas.
Making his first start of the season, Bagley co-led the team with 16 points and eight rebounds. Bagley has started 16 games for the Wizards dating back to last season, and he's been productive as a member of Washington's first unit with averages of 12.9 points, 8.9 rebounds, 0.9 steals and 1.0 blocks in 26.5 minutes per contest while shooting 53.8 percent from the floor. It remains to be seen if coach Brian Keefe will keep Bagley in the starting lineup once Kyle Kuzma (ribs) returns to the fold, but fantasy managers should keep an eye on Bagley.

Wizards' Bilal Coulibaly: Rough shooting night in rout
Coulibaly provided four points (0-10 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, four assists and three steals over 29 minutes during Thursday's 137-101 loss to the Mavericks.
It was a dreadful showing on offense by Coulibaly, who was totally off the mark Thursday and failed to make a single field goal, but he did record three steals to somewhat salvage his night. While Coulibaly put together an encouraging start to the season, he's now shooting a miserable 21.7 percent from the field and 15.4 percent from downtown over his last seven games, a cold spell in which he's averaging 6.9 points, 4.7 rebounds, 3.6 assists and 1.7 steals in 34.6 minutes per contest. However, the minutes should remain somewhat high for the 2023 No. 7 overall pick as he tries to find his identity offensively on the reeling Wizards, who have now lost 16 straight games as they continue to rebuild.

Wizards' Jordan Poole: Makes impact as facilitator
Poole chipped in 11 points (4-14 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 1-3 FT), one rebound, eight assists and two steals in 32 minutes during Thursday's 137-101 loss to Dallas.
Poole struggled to score Thursday, but he did hand out eight assists while turning the ball over just once to help offset the poor shooting night. Despite the shaky performance, Poole is still averaging a strong 20.0 points, 5.8 assists, 2.2 rebounds, 1.2 steals and 2.7 three-pointers in 29.3 minutes per game over his last 10 contests. The 25-year-old combo guard has been one of the lone bright spots for the 2-18 Wizards in what has been a bounce-back season for him thus far, and he'll face a Nuggets team at home Saturday that's struggled defensively to begin the campaign, as they rank 24th in the league in points allowed per game (116.8).

Wizards' Malcolm Brogdon: Leaves early with hamstring injury
Brogdon has been ruled out for the rest of Thursday's game against Dallas due to left hamstring tightness, Varun Shankar of The Washington Post reports.
Brogdon went back to the locker room just before the start of the fourth quarter, and the team has elected to shut him down for the rest of the game after evaluating him further. He'll finish the game with 16 points (5-13 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-6 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one block in 25 minutes. Brogdon will most likely be headed for a multi-game absence, potentially opening the door for Carlton Carrington to move back into the starting five.

Wizards' Malcolm Brogdon: Goes to locker room Thursday
Brogdon (undisclosed) went back to the locker room prior to the start of the fourth quarter during Thursday's game against Dallas, Varun Shankar of The Washington Post reports.
Brogdon will finish with 16 points (5-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 4-6 FT), four rebounds, two assists and a block across 25 minutes if he's unable to return. The veteran guard was deemed questionable prior to the contest due to right knee soreness, though it is unclear if the knee issue is the reason for his visit to the locker room. In Brogdon's absence, Carlton Carrington and Jared Butler will likely pick up the slack.

Wizards' Jonas Valanciunas: Out of starting five Thursday
Valanciunas will come off the bench in Thursday's matchup against Dallas.
The Wizards will take a look at Marvin Bagley starting alongside Alex Sarr in the frontcourt, pushing Valanciunas to the bench. The veteran big man started in the Wizards' last two outings, during which he averaged 14.5 points, 9.0 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.0 steals and 0.5 blocks while shooting 61.1 percent from the field across 25.0 minutes per contest.

Wizards' Marvin Bagley: Making first start of season
Bagley is starting Thursday's game against the Mavericks.
Bagley will make his first start of the season Thursday, as the Wizards will shake things up in the frontcourt once again by sending Jonas Valanciunas to the bench. Bagley is averaging just 5.4 minutes per game this season, but he should see a sizable uptick in playing time in this one.

Wizards' Corey Kispert: Sitting out Thursday
Kispert (ankle) won't play Thursday versus Dallas.
Kispert will be sidelined for the first time this season after spraining his left ankle during Tuesday's blowout loss to the Cavaliers. The fourth-year pro has gotten off to a rough start to the 2024-25 campaign, connecting on just 31.3 percent of 5.9 three-point attempts per game.

Wizards' Kyshawn George: Sitting out Thursday
George (ankle) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Dallas.
George suffered a left ankle sprain in the first half of Tuesday's loss to Cleveland and will miss his first game of the season Thursday. While being ruled out more than 24 hours in advance of Thursday's contest is not a great sign, the rookie forward could be ready to return to action Saturday against Denver.
