Kyshawn George News, Rumors, Updates - Washington Wizards

Notches nine points for Canada George (elbow) finished with nine points (4-8 FG, 1-5 3Pt), three rebounds and one assist in 21 minutes for Canada in Friday's 110-84 World Cup Qualifiers win over Peurto Rico.

Impact George missed the end of the 2025-26 regular season with a Grade 2 distal UCL tear in his left elbow, but he's since been deemed 100 percent. The Wizards are noticeably deeper heading into 2026-27, as Anthony Davis (finger) is expected to be healthy and the team drafted AJ Dybantsa with the No. 1 overall pick in the 2026 NBA Draft.

More competition for minutes George's (elbow) role becomes less certain after Washington added another high-upside wing prospect in AJ Dybantsa at the top of the draft.

Impact The third-year forward displayed intriguing playmaking ability and positional versatility during his sophomore campaign, but the Wizards now possess considerable depth on the wing. George is currently penciled in as the starting shooting guard, though his offensive opportunities may fluctuate depending on lineup combinations -- the Wizards also just re-signed Trae Young (quadriceps) and will be welcoming Anthony Davis (finger) to the mix.

Out for season George (elbow) will miss the rest of the 2025-26 season, Chase Hughes of Monumental Sports Network reports.

Impact George has been sidelined since March 2 due to a Grade 2 distal UCL tear in his left elbow and the Wizards had no incentive to rush him back to the court for the last couple weeks. The forward appeared in 48 regular-season contests with averages of 14.8 points, 5.1 rebounds, 4.5 assists, 1.0 steals and 2.1 three-pointers on 43.8 percent shooting from the field.

Impact George has been sidelined since March 2 due to a Grade 2 distal UCL tear in his left elbow. The team has yet to provide much of an update on his timeline for a return, and there doesn't seem to be much sense in rushing him back for the final few games of the regular season. George can be considered doubtful for Saturday's game in Miami until further notice.

Impact George is dealing with a Grade 2 distal UCL tear in his left elbow, an issue that has kept him sidelined since March 3. The Wizards are planning to take a conservative approach with George, so it wouldn't be surprising for next week's update to be negative. While George has been out, Will Riley and Jamir Watkins have taken on larger roles. The Wizards have six regular-season games after George's set re-evaluation date of April 1.

Impact George sustained the injury in Monday's loss to Houston and won't return until late March at the very earliest. With the Wizards sitting at 16-45 on the season, it wouldn't be surprising to see the club exercise extreme caution with the second-year wing for the remainder of the season. With George sidelined, Will Riley, Jamir Watkins (ankle) and Justin Champagnie are candidates for increased minutes.
