Suffers fractured thumb Kispert suffered a fractured right thumb Tuesday and is expected to miss a few weeks of action, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

Impact Kispert will not need surgery, and an injury such as this typically requires three weeks of recovery, Robbins added to his report. The Wizards are already without Tre Johnson (hip), and Robbins reports that players such as Cam Whitmore and Will Reily could potentially step into larger roles on the wings.

Won't return Tuesday Kispert won't return to Tuesday's game against the Hawks due to a right thumb injury, Lauren L. Williams of The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reports.

Impact Kispert got the starting nod and provided an immediate spark Tuesday, though he'll finish with 19 points (6-11 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 3-5 FT), three rebounds, three steals, one assist and one block across 24 minutes after leaving in the third quarter. Cam Whitmore and Justin Champagnie are candidates for a bump in minutes the rest of the way due to Kispert being sidelined. The 26-year-old swingman's next opportunity to play will come Friday against the Pacers.

Leaves for locker room Kispert exited to the locker room in the third quarter of Tuesday's game against the Hawks due to an apparent right hand injury, Varun Shankar of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Kispert checked out with 6:19 remaining in the third and immediately headed back to the locker room. If the 26-year-old swingman is unable to return, Cam Whitmore and Justin Champagnie are candidates to see increased minutes the rest of the way.

Thrives in spot start Kispert finished Saturday's 121-120 loss to the Bulls with 20 points (7-10 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), five rebounds, five assists and one steal over 37 minutes.

Impact Kispert moved into the starting lineup, replacing Khris Middleton, who was out due to injury management. The move worked wonders for Kispert, scoring a season-high 20 points. While he does have the ability to score in bunches, his role is typically uneventful, making him nothing more than a stream consideration on nights like this.

Starting sans Middleton Kispert will start Saturday's game against the Bulls.

Impact With Khris Middleton (knee) sidelined, Kispert will get the starting nod for the first time this season. Over his last five appearances, the 26-year-old forward has averaged 5.8 points and 2.2 rebounds in 17.4 minutes per contest.

Muted role continues Kispert ended Wednesday's 120-109 loss to the Timberwolves with zero points (0-4 FG, 0-2 3Pt), one rebound and one assist in 11 minutes.

Impact Kispert failed to score for the second time this season, having now failed to top double digits in five straight appearances. Washington is looking to the future, of which Kispert may not be a sizeable part. At best, he should be viewed as a potential three-point streaming candidate, if and when those ahead of him in the rotation are missing time.

Quiet in overtime loss Kispert closed Monday's 137-135 overtime loss to the Pistons with eight points (3-3 FG, 2-2 3Pt), three rebounds and two assists over 23 minutes.

Impact In a game where Washington scored 135 points, Kispert was only able to contribute eight, as he only attempted three shots. Kispert's role backing up Khris Middleton has been constant, and he averages 8.4 points, 2.4 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.2 steals, 0.2 blocks and 1.5 threes made on the season.

Drills three triples vs. New York Kispert logged 15 points (5-6 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 202 FT) and four assists over 15 minutes during the Wizards' 119-102 loss to the Knicks on Monday.

Impact Kispert led the Wizards' bench in scoring and finished tied with Kyshawn George and Bilal Coulibaly in points behind Alex Sarr (19). Kispert entered Monday's game having connected on just 28.0 percent of his three-point attempts on 4.2 3PA/G to open the season, but his efficiency during Monday's loss is an encouraging sign for the fifth-year pro. He connected on 39.1 percent of his three-point attempts across the three regular seasons prior to the 2025-26 campaign.

Scoreless in loss Kispert missed his lone field goal attempt in Sunday's 139-113 loss to the Hornets, but recorded a steal and a rebound across 20 minutes.

Impact Kispert was unable to score off the bench Sunday, which is concerning given three-point shooting is his primary role. While his role may have been reduced as a result of game script, with benches clearing in the fourth quarter, Kispert needs to produce more, and his next opportunity to do so would be Tuesday against the 76ers.

Notches 12 points Kispert logged 12 points (5-13 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 1-2 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one steal across 23 minutes of Thursday's 119-98 preseason loss to Detroit.

Impact Kispert underwent successful surgery on his left thumb back on March 18, but he's been a full go throughout the preseason. Kispert is projected to have a sizable role with the second unit in 2025-26, though you could argue that the Wizards may be more inclined to play their young wings as the season progresses.

Ready for training camp Wizards general manager Will Dawkins said Wednesday that Kispert (thumb) will be ready for training camp, Chase Hughes of Monumental Sports Network reports.

Impact Kispert underwent successful surgery on his left thumb back on March 18, ending his 2024-25 campaign early. He finished the regular season with averages of 11.6 points, 3.0 rebounds, 2.0 three-pointers and 1.7 assists in 26.3 minutes per game. Presumably, he'll open the season as the primary backup small forward behind Khris Middleton.
