Bilal Coulibaly News, Rumors, Updates - Washington Wizards

Washington faces New Orleans, aims to break 7-game skid

Washington will try to end its seven-game losing streak when the Wizards play New Orleans

1 DAY AGO • Associated Press

Efficient scoring night in loss Coulibaly amassed 17 points (7-10 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 1-4 FT), three rebounds, two assists and three steals in 34 minutes during Thursday's 122-112 loss to the Jazz.

Impact Coulibaly was one of the few bright spots for Washington on Thursday, finishing as the team's second-leading scorer while missing only three shots from the field. Perhaps more importantly for fantasy managers, the 21-year-old forward logged 34 minutes, which marks his highest workload since early February, and chipped in on the defensive end with a team-high three steals. While the Wizards' rotation has been notoriously unpredictable lately, Coulibaly's ability to provide across-the-board production keeps him firmly on the radar in standard 12-team leagues.

Modest performance Saturday Coulibaly amassed 14 points (6-10 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 0-2 FT), five rebounds, four assists and one steal across 23 minutes during Saturday's 134-125 loss to the Raptors.

Impact Coulibaly continues to play limited minutes, much like the entire Washington starting five. In fact, all five players who began the game logged fewer than 25 minutes, a theme that, while at least predictable, makes it hard for fantasy managers to trust anyone on the Wizards roster. Unless you are desperate for steals, Coulibaly is best viewed as a streaming option in standard leagues.

Adds 17 points in loss Coulibaly finished with 17 points (6-9 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-4 FT), two rebounds, two assists, two blocks and one steal across 17 minutes during Sunday's 129-112 loss to Charlotte.

Impact Coulibaly led the Wizards in scoring Sunday despite playing limited minutes, recording his third-highest point total of the season and matching a season high with three made triples. The 21-year-old forward has played more than 30 minutes only twice over his last 15 games, averaging 10.1 points, 3.3 rebounds, 2.5 assists, 1.3 steals and 0.9 blocks in 25 minutes per contest in that span.

Across-the-board performance Coulibaly accumulated 13 points (6-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal over 22 minutes during Friday's 131-118 victory over the Pacers.

Impact Coulibaly chipped in across all major categories, despite the fact that his playing time was once again limited to fewer than 25 minutes. While his production has been adequate, there is just no way to predict who is going to step up for the Wizards on any given night. With that said, Coulibaly has at least been in the active rotation in 10 of the past 11 games, making him a borderline 12-team asset, for now.

Returning Sunday Coulibaly (back) is available for Sunday's game against Miami.

Impact Coulibaly is working through a lower-back issue that sidelined him for Saturday's game against the Nets, but the third-year pro has been cleared to play in the second leg of the Wizards' back-to-back set Sunday. Coulibaly is averaging 9.7 points, 4.6 rebounds and 2.5 assists over 26.6 minutes per game this season, all of which are lower than his numbers during the 2024-25 campaign.

Not playing Saturday Coulibaly (lower back) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Nets.

Impact Coulibaly is dealing with lower-back soreness that will prevent him from playing Saturday, and he'll work toward being available for the second leg of the Wizards' back-to-back set Sunday against the Heat. The Wizards have multiple players sidelined due to injuries or having being recently acquired before the trade deadline, so Bub Carrington, Sharify Cooper, Jamir Watkins, Justin Champagnie and others are slated for increased roles against Brooklyn.

Questionable for Saturday Coulibaly (lower back soreness) is questionable for Saturday's game versus Brooklyn.

Impact The Wizards submitted a lengthy injury report for the front end of this back-to-back set. This could mean a maintenance day is on the table for several key players. Will Riley and Jamir Watkins could see an uptick in minutes if Coulibaly is held out.
