Bub Carrington News, Rumors, Updates - Washington Wizards

Fourth-year option picked up The Wizards exercised the fourth-year team option on Carrington on Sunday, Brett Siegel of ClutchPoints.com reports.

Impact Carrington was the 14th pick in the 2024 NBA Draft and has spent his two-plus years as a pro in Washington. He's still yet to miss a single game as a Wizard, averaging 10.1 points, 3.7 rebounds and 4.5 assists in 28.5 minutes across 170 regular-season appearances.

Struggles on offense Carrington posted six points (2-7 FG, 2-5 3Pt), three assists and one steal over 28 minutes during Monday's 110-103 loss to the Hornets.

Impact Carrington connected on two shots from beyond the arc but otherwise struggled to make an impact, failing to record a rebound despite logging 28 minutes. The young guard continues to see meaningful playing time in Washington's backcourt, though the presence of Trae Young limits his opportunities as a primary facilitator. Carrington's inconsistent production makes him a difficult player to trust in standard fantasy formats.

Impact Carrington shot efficiently from the field and beyond the arc, although he committed four turnovers against just one assist. With Trae Young running Washington's offense, Carrington may have fewer opportunities to handle the ball this season, making his preseason development as an off-ball contributor particularly important.

Impact Carrington was extremely efficient in this game, as he missed just four of his 15 shots from the field, and that allowed him to match his previous season-high scoring output -- he had previously scored 30 points in a loss to the Pistons on March 30.
