Kyle Kuzma Out Again On Saturday

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.

Kyle Kuzma Won't Play Versus Atlanta

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.

Kyle Kuzma Exits Monday's Game With Groin Soreness

Washington Wizards forward Kyle Kuzma couldn't complete Monday's meeting with Atlanta due to groin soreness. He was pulled from the game near the end of the fourth quarter. Despite making an early exit, Kuzma still logged 40 minutes in a 121-119 win. He posted his first double-double of the season with 25 points and 11 rebounds, adding seven assists to his line with impressive 5-for-9 shooting from deep. Washington would sorely miss Kuzma's offensive ability in Wednesday's rematch against the Hawks if he can't play. Marvin Bagley III may receive additional playing time during his absence, but he was used for only four minutes in Monday's victory. The Wizards could take a committee approach to make up for Kuzma's absence.

Corey Kispert Gets Four-Year Extension With Wizards

Washington Wizards forward Corey Kispert will remain in DC for the foreseeable future after agreeing on a new contract extension. According to Shams Charania of ESPN, Kispert signed a four-year deal worth $54 million on Monday afternoon. The 25-year-old was the team's 15th-overall pick in the 2021 NBA Draft and has been a very consistent role player for them over the past three years. Throughout his time in Washington so far, he's averaged 10.9 points, 2.8 rebounds, 1.4 assists, and 2.0 threes per game. He posted a career-high 13.4 points per game last season as well.

Saddiq Bey Remains Without Timetable For His Return

Washington Wizards forward Saddiq Bey (knee) remains without a timetable for his return to action. The 25-year-old suffered an ACL injury in March and is still rehabbing, with a week to go until the start of the 2024-25 NBA campaign. Bey could be fun to watch on this rebuilding Wizards team. He has averaged 14.1 points and 5.2 rebounds in 292 regular-season appearances with Detroit and Atlanta. Despite his knee injury, Bey was signed to a three-year, $20 million deal as a free agent by the Wizards in the summer, so the team clearly values him. However, it could take months until we see the 25-year-old in action with his new squad.
