ALEX SARR NEWS

Attempts 17 shots Sarr ended with 16 points (7-17 FG, 2-9 3Pt), four rebounds, two assists and one block across 32 minutes during Sunday's 124-90 loss to the Celtics.

Impact This was Sarr's ninth game of his rookie campaign with at least 17 shot attempts. It's no secret that his offensive game is very raw, as he's hitting 39.6 percent from the field this season. The Wizards are clearly giving him the green light, however, presumably to speed up his development. His defense has been tremendous, though, as he's averaging 1.5 blocks and 0.7 steals on the season.

Struggles with shot in loss Sarr finished Saturday's 115-112 loss to the Nets with 12 points (4-12 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist and three blocks in 25 minutes.

Impact Neither Sarr nor Jordan Poole posted good numbers in this loss, and Sarr's woes came mainly in the scoring column, as he made just 33.3 percent of his shots while missing all five of his three-pointers. One subpar performance won't affect Sarr status as one of the best rookies in The Association this season, however, and he should aim to bounce back when the Wizards take on the Heat on Monday, although he'd have a tough matchup against the frontcourt of Kel'el Ware and Bam Adebayo in that contest.

Leads Washington in scoring Sarr ended with 22 points (8-15 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-6 FT), seven rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal in 28 minutes during Thursday's 162-109 loss to the Pacers.

Impact Sarr was the top scorer for the Wizards in this game. While the rookie tends to receive heavy minutes on a steady basis in order to give him as much exposure as possible in his first year in the league, he was limited to only 28 minutes in this blowout loss. Sarr has been playing well in recent weeks, though, and his growth has been massive. He's reached the 20-point mark in five of his last eight appearances, averaging 20.6 points, 6.6 rebounds, 2.3 assists and 1.4 blocks per game in that span.
