Posts 17 points in win Whitmore supplied 17 points (8-14 FG, 1-3 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist and one steal over 19 minutes during Monday's 129-126 win over the Bucks.

Impact Whitmore will likely be called upon a lot more in the forseeable future due to the absences of Tre Johnson (hip) and Corey Kispert (thumb). While Whitmore's scoreless output just two games ago serves as a reminder of his inconsistent fantasy production, injuries to Washington's forwards have prompted him to step into an increased role, and could be under roster consideration moving forward, especially if he produces statlines like Monday's more often.

Drops a donut in win Whitmore contributed zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one block and one steal in 10 minutes during Tuesday's 132-113 win over the Hawks.

Impact Whitmore went scoreless for just the second time this season, continuing what has been a wildly inconsistent campaign. While he does have the ability to get hot from the field, his temperament is simply too volatile to trust in fantasy circles. At this stage, he should be viewed as nothing more than a potential streaming candidate, assuming you can catch him on the right night.

Impact Whitmore has now dropped over 11 points in four of his last five games, averaging 13.8 points, 3.2 rebounds, 1.0 assists, 0.6 stealsm 0.4 blocks and 1.2 threes in that span. He will continue to operate as one of Washington's main bench scorers, and could even see himself in the starting lineup in the event of injury.

Impact Whitmore never had the chance to play regular minutes while with the Rockets, and he's clearly making the most of the opportunity now that he's with the Wizards. Whitmore has hit double-digit points in each of his last three appearances, averaging 16.7 points per game and shooting an impressive 54.5 percent from the floor in that span.

Scores season-high 20 points Whitmore closed with 20 points (6-11 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 7-8 FT), two rebounds, one assist and two steals in 29 minutes during Monday's 137-135 overtime loss to the Pistons.

Impact Whitmore scored at least 19 points for the second straight game, reminding everyone what he can do on the offensive end of the floor. In typical fashion, however, he did very little to round out his performance. While the recent scoring surge has been nice, there is no reason to make him a priority outside of deeper formats.

Puts up 19 points in loss Whitmore had 19 points (7-13 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and three rebounds over 29 minutes during Saturday's 111-105 loss to the Mavericks.

Impact Whitmore provided an unexpected 19-point outburst off the bench in this one and took full advantage of his chances after the team announced that both Khris Middleton (knee) and Bilal Coulibaly (lower leg) would miss Saturday's clash. This is clearly Whitemore's best showing of the young season so far, which comes after he barely saw the court Friday night. He was held scoreless (0-1 FG) and committed one turnover in five minutes during the blowout loss to Cleveland.
