Washington Wizards

Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (groin) has been ruled out for a third consecutive game as he continues to deal with a right groin strain. There hasn't been a firm timetable for his return and the Wizards likely won't rush him back as they give some of their younger prospects extended time on the court. Alexandre Sarr has spent some extra time with the starting five along with Bilal Coulibaly and Marvin Bagley III has seen a few opportunities off of the bench. The former two have served as better streaming options.

Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (groin) won't play on Saturday versus the Heat. This will mark the veteran's second consecutive absence because of a groin strain suffered in Monday's game against Atlanta. Kyshawn George entered the starting lineup for Wednesday's win over the Atlanta Hawks, the second of back-to-back games with the club, finishing with 11 points, four assists, and three steals. While George still has a lot to prove, he's worth monitoring in case he continues to play well. But as far as Saturday's contest is concerned, Bilal Coulibaly and Jordan Poole are the players anticipated to benefit the most from Kuzma's absence. Corey Kispert, coming off a 16-point showing on Wednesday, can also be added to fantasy lineups.

Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma (groin) won't play in Wednesday's rematch with the Hawks. The 29-year-old came close to a triple-double in Monday's game versus Atlanta, amassing 25 points, 11 rebounds, and seven assists. He also logged a game-high 40 minutes. However, Kuzma couldn't finish the game due to a right groin strain. There's a realistic chance the injury could cost him a substantial amount of time. But until Kuzma is back on the floor, Jordan Poole, Bilal Coulibaly, and Corey Kispert should pick up most of the slack. At the same time, rookie Bub Carrington, who has averaged 8.7 points in three games this season, is worth monitoring in case his role grows even more.
