Bilal Coulibaly Bilal Coulibaly records 13 points, two steals
Wed, Feb 11, 2026, 3:31 PM
Bilal Coulibaly amassed 13 points (5-of-9 FGs, 2-of-3 FTs), two assists, two steals, one block and one three-pointer in Wednesday's loss to the Cavaliers.
Analysis: Coulibaly is one of the Wizards players fantasy managers will be watching his minutes as much, if not more, than his stat lines for the rest of the season. He shot the ball reasonably well against the Cavaliers, but was limited to 24 minutes. Justin Champagnie (12/4/2/2 with two three-pointers) came off the bench on Wednesday and also played 24 minutes. Coulibaly is most valuable to managers who need defensive production, but that doesn't do them much good if his minutes are being cut for draft lottery reasons. |

Wed, Feb 11, 2026, 7:54 AM
Tristan Vuk?evi? (illness) is out for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.
Analysis: Vuk?evi? popped up on the injury report Wednesday morning with an illness and was ruled out early in the afternoon. With the 22-year-old forward out and Alex Sarr (hamstring) questionable, Anthony Gill could be in line for a spot start at the center position. |

Analysis: Gill was initially listed as questionable with a hand injury, but has since been ruled in for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers. With Tristan Vuk?evi? (illness) already ruled out and Alex Sarr (hamstring) now questionable, the 33-year-old power forward could be in line for a spot start. |

Wed, Feb 11, 2026, 6:01 AM
Tristan Vukcevic (illness) was downgraded to questionable for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.
Analysis: Vukcevic popped up on the injury report as questionable with an illness Wednesday morning. The 22-year-old power forward played 20 minutes in Saturday's loss to the Heat. Alex Sarr figures to play more minutes if Vukcevic is ruled out against the Cavaliers. |

Wed, Feb 11, 2026, 5:24 AM
Bilal Coulibaly (heel) is available for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.
Analysis: Coulibaly was initially listed as questionable with right heel soreness. The 21-year-old shooting guard has since been cleared to play Wednesday against the Cavaliers. Coulibaly left Sunday's loss to the Heat with an eye injury after taking a shot to the face, but appears to have suffered no lasting effects from the incident. |

Anthony Gill Anthony Gill (hand) questionable vs. Cleveland
Tue, Feb 10, 2026, 11:13 AM
NBA Injury Report
Anthony Gill (hand) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.
Analysis: Gill was held out of Sunday's loss to the Heat, as he suffered a sprained hand the day prior. If the veteran forward/center can play, don't be surprised if the Wizards cut starting center Alex Sarr's playing time, as they did in Thursday's win over the Pistons. |

Bilal Coulibaly Bilal Coulibaly (heel) questionable vs. Cleveland
Tue, Feb 10, 2026, 10:58 AM
NBA Injury Report
Bilal Coulibaly (heel) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.
Analysis: Coulibaly took a shot to the face during the fourth quarter of Sunday's loss to the Heat, but that isn't the reason for his appearance on the injury report. The Wizards' wing is dealing with a sore right heel, so he's questionable. If Coulibaly can't play on Wednesday, Will Riley would benefit the most in terms of playing time. |

Jaden Hardy Jaden Hardy (rest) removed from injury report
Tue, Feb 10, 2026, 10:54 AM
NBA Injury Report
Jaden Hardy (rest) is not on the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Cavaliers.
Analysis: Hardy will be available to potentially make his Wizards' debut on Wednesday. While he may not be in a position to impact fantasy basketball, Hardy is someone whose playing time may increase after the All-Star break if Washington looks to limit Kyshawn George's minutes. |

Justin Champagnie Justin Champagnie scores 13 points in blowout loss
Sun, Feb 8, 2026, 10:30 AM
Justin Champagnie recorded 13 points (4-of-11 FGs, 4-of-4 FTs), seven rebounds, one assist, one steal and one three-pointer in Sunday's loss to the Heat.
Analysis: Champagnie has reached double figures in each of his last three appearances. While the playing time, 25 minutes on Sunday, wasn't the best, he remains in the starting lineup. For that reason, Champagnie is worth the risk for managers seeking players with âsilly season standoutâ potential. The Wizards only play one of their four Week 17 games before the All-Star break, on Wednesday against the Cavaliers, so there won't be much to be gained from grabbing Champagnie off the waiver wire on Monday. |

Bilal Coulibaly Bilal Coulibaly (eye) exits during fourth quarter
Sun, Feb 8, 2026, 10:28 AM
Bijan Todd
Bilal Coulibaly (eye) tallied seven points (2-of-7 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), four rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block and one three-pointer in Sunday's loss ot the Heat.
Analysis: Coulibaly took a shot to the face from Heat guard Kasparas Jaku?ionis with 5:36 remaining in the fourth quarter and did not return. The third-year wing finished with seven points, four rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block and one three-pointer. Will Riley (nine points, one rebound, one steal, one block and one three-pointer) was limited to 21 minutes, an understandable development since he played 45 on Saturday. If Coulibaly misses time, Riley is the most likely beneficiary. |

Anthony Davis Dawkins: Davis (hand) likely to play this season
Sun, Feb 8, 2026, 7:46 AM
David Aldridge
Wizards GM Will Dawkins said on Sunday that he anticipates Anthony Davis (hand) playing at some point this season.
Analysis: Two days after NBA insider Chris Haynes reported that Davis was unlikely to play again this season, Dawkins said that he anticipates the forward/center returning at some point. In the short term, Davis will return to Dallas to work with his medical team as he recovers from ligament damage in his left hand. Dawkins also noted that the 4-to-6 week timeline provided in mid-January is closer to 6-to-10 weeks. If Davis were to play this season, the timeline suggests he won't be available until sometime in March. |

Tristan Vukcevic Tristan Vuk?evi? (knee) upgraded to available
Sun, Feb 8, 2026, 7:15 AM
NBA Injury Report
Tristan Vuk?evi? (knee) is available for Sunday's game against the Heat.
Analysis: Vuk?evi? was in the starting lineup for Saturday's loss to the Nets, but he only played 20 minutes. With Alex Sarr (ankle) also available, Vuk?evi? may play even less. However, Sarr only played 18 minutes in Thursday's win over the Pistons. |

Bilal Coulibaly Bilal Coulibaly (back) upgraded to available
Sun, Feb 8, 2026, 7:05 AM
NBA Injury Report
Bilal Coulibaly (back) is available for Sunday's game against the Heat.
Analysis: Coulibaly is back after sitting out Saturday's loss to the Nets. As a result of his return, Will Riley will likely head to the bench. However, the rookie is worth holding onto, as he should still play plenty. |

Anthony Gill Anthony Gill (hand) downgraded to out vs. Miami
Sun, Feb 8, 2026, 6:49 AM
NBA Injury Report
Anthony Gill (hand) is out for Sunday's game against the Heat.
Analysis: Gill will sit out Sunday's game with a right hand contusion, leaving the Wizards down a frontcourt option off the bench. If Alex Sarr (ankle) and Tristan Vuk?evi? (knee) can play, the Wizards should be fine in terms of their frontcourt depth. |

Tristan Vukcevic Tristan Vuk?evi? (knee) questionable vs. Miami
Sun, Feb 8, 2026, 3:38 AM
NBA Injury Report
Tristan Vuk?evi? (knee) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Heat.
Analysis: With Alex Sarr (ankle) unavailable, Vuk?evi? started Saturday's loss to the Nets. However, he only played 20 minutes, with veteran Anthony Gill (hand) logging 28 off the bench. If Sarr, who's also listed as questionable, plays, there isn't much to be gained from rostering Vuk?evi? in fantasy leagues, even on a four-game day. |

D'Angelo Russell D'Angelo Russell (not with team) out vs. Miami
Sun, Feb 8, 2026, 3:35 AM
NBA Injury Report
D'Angelo Russell (not with team) is out for Sunday's game against the Heat.
Analysis: Russell has yet to join the Wizards since being sent to the nation's capital as part of the Anthony Davis trade. And it's fair to wonder if the veteran guard is a buyout candidate, given the number of young perimeter players on the roster. There's no need to roster Russell in fantasy leagues. |

Jaden Hardy Jaden Hardy (rest) ruled out vs. Miami
Sun, Feb 8, 2026, 3:31 AM
NBA Injury Report
Jaden Hardy (rest) is out for Sunday's game against the Heat.
Analysis: Hardy's Wizards debut will have to wait for at least one more game. Given his role in Dallas, fantasy managers should hold off on adding the fourth-year guard until it's made clear that there's a place for him within the Wizards' rotation. |
|
Anthony Gill Anthony Gill (hand) questionable vs. Miami
Sun, Feb 8, 2026, 3:28 AM
NBA Injury Report
Anthony Gill (hand) is questionable for Saturday's game against the Heat.
Analysis: Gill has played between 27 and 30 minutes in three of Washington's last four games, with his playing time dictated mainly by the availability of starter Alex Sarr (ankle). With the second-year center also listed as questionable, Gill could be in for another heavy workload if he plays, but Sarr doesn't. |

Bilal Coulibaly Bilal Coulibaly (back) questionable vs. Miami
Sun, Feb 8, 2026, 3:19 AM
NBA Injury Report
Bilal Coulibaly (back) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Heat.
Analysis: Coulibaly did not play in Saturday's loss to the Nets, opening up a spot in the starting lineup for Will Riley. Even if the third-year wing can play against Miami, those who have added Riley recently need to hold onto him. The rookie should play plenty the rest of the season, regardless of Coulibaly's availability. |

Tristan Vukcevic Tristan Vuk?evi? scores 14 points vs. Brooklyn
Sat, Feb 7, 2026, 11:33 AM
Tristan Vuk?evi? produced 14 points (6-of-12 FGs, 1-of-1 FTs), two rebounds, two assists, one steal and one three-pointer in Saturday's loss to the Nets.
Analysis: Marvin Bagley is now in Dallas, so Vuk?evi? was the next man up with Alex Sarr (ankle) unavailable. The 7-footer's performance was somewhat underwhelming, especially after Wizards head coach Brian Keefe felt the need to pull Vuk?evi? from the game after an uninspired start to the third quarter. Vuk was able to get back into the game, but he only logged 20 minutes. Even on nights when Sarr isn't available, there's little to be gained from rostering Vuk?evi?. |
