Marvin Bagley III News, Rumors, Updates - Washington Wizards

Draws first start of season Bagley is in the Wizards' starting lineup against the Timberwolves on Wednesday.

Impact The Wizards will turn to Bagley as the starting center Wednesday due to the absence of Alex Sarr (toe). Bagley came off the bench in each of the Wizards' first 13 games of the regular season and is averaging 7.2 points, 4.3 rebounds, 1.2 assists, 0.5 blocks and 0.5 steals over 14.6 minutes per game.

Tallie six defensive stats Bagley closed with nine points (4-6 FG, 1-1 3Pt), two rebounds, one assist, three blocks and three steals over 16 minutes during Monday's 137-135 overtime loss to the Pistons.

Impact Bagley went to work on the defensive end of the floor, recording six combined steals and blocks. Given he had a combined seven steals in blocks across the previous 10 games, we can safely assume that this was nothing more than an outlier. Barring an injury to Alex Sarr, Bagley can safely be left on the waiver wire.

Questionable with ankle sprain Bagley is questionable for Thursday's game against the Thunder due to a sprained right ankle.

Impact Bagley is in jeopardy of missing his first game of the season. The veteran big man's potential absence would open the door for Tristan Vukcevic to have the backup center role all to himself behind starter Alex Sarr.

Impact Alex Sarr will rightfully get all the headlines after his 31-point eruption, but Bagley was a bright spot off the bench for Washington with a season-high 14 points. Through four regular-season contests, Bagley holds averages of 6.8 points, 3.8 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 0.8 steals in 14.6 minutes per contest.

Idle in final two playoff games Bagley did not play in Game 3 or 4 of the first round of the Western Conference playoffs against the Thunder.

Impact Bagley saw extended playing time in a Game 1 blowout, finishing with 17 points, five rebounds, two steals and one block over 16 minutes, but he proceeded to record only one rebound over 11 minutes in Game 2. Bagley started the regular season with the Wizards but was traded to the Grizzlies in early February. He appeared in just 12 regular-season games (one start) for Memphis due to an ankle injury and concussion, averaging 3.6 points and 2.3 rebounds over 8.3 minutes. The 2018 first-round pick out of Duke will enter the offseason as an unrestricted free agent.

Slides to second unit vs. Warriors Bagley won't start in Tuesday's Play-In Game against the Warriors, Anthony Slater of The Athletic reports.

Impact The 26-year-old big man will retreat to the bench after receiving the starting nod in the club's regular-season finale against Dallas on Sunday due to Zach Edey (ankle) being sidelined. Bagley has logged a DNP in three of Memphis' last six outings, and over his last five appearances in the second unit, he has averaged 0.8 points and 1.2 rebounds across only 4.0 minutes per game.

Impactful two-way presence Bagley notched 25 points (11-18 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 3-4 FT), 12 rebounds, three assists and one steal across 31 minutes during Sunday's 132-97 win over Dallas.

Impact Bagley made the most of the opportunity to feature Sunday and posted an excellent stat line. However, he's quite down in the pecking order in the rotation, so he's not likely to see a big role in the frontcourt once the playoffs begin. At least, he'll be a depth option for any of the two frontcourt roles behind either Jaren Jackson or Zach Edey.
