Caris LeVert scored 25 of his 34 points in the second half to help the Brooklyn Nets beat the Washington Wizards 118-110 and move closer to a playoff berthAUGUST 2, 2020 • Associated Press
Dominant display versus Nets Bryant contributed 30 points (12-20 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 13 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal in 37 minutes during Sunday's 118-110 loss to the Nets.
Impact Bryant was absolutely superb on both ends, pouring in a season high scoring total while contributing across every category. His ability to torch opposing defenses from in close and beyond the arc has made him the team's go-to offensive option during the restart. Bryant will try to build on this performance heading into Monday's matchup versus the Pacers.

Team-high 34 minutes Friday Bryant tallied 10 points (4-12 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 1-2 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and two steals in 34 minutes during Friday's 125-112 loss to the Suns.
Impact Bryant managed just 10 points in the loss with the real story being the fact he played a whopping 34 minutes. After battling injury this season, there was certainly an element of doubt when assessing his outlook for this resumption period. However, if he is going be on the floor at least 30 minutes per night, his value significantly increases across all formats.

Limited in return to action Bryant finished with just four points (2-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist in eight minutes during Wednesday's 89-82 scrimmage loss to the Nuggets.
Impact Bryant was slated to play eight minutes Wednesday, and that's exactly how things eventuated.

Given the uncertainty around his role, Bryant is going to be tough to draft with any confidence in resumption leagues.

To play around eight minutes Bryant (coach's decision) is available for Wednesday's scrimmage against the Nuggets but likely won't play more than eight minutes, Fred Katz of The Athletic reports.
Impact Bryant practiced for the first time Friday, and it was unclear if he would be available for the Wizards' first scrimmage. He'll be available in a limited capacity, but with Ian Mahinmi (groin) out, plenty of center minutes should still go to Moritz Wagner.

Scrimmage availability unclear Thomas may not play in Wednesday's scrimmage, Fred Katz of The Athletic reports.
Impact According to coach Scott Brooks, the team is "still working through" whether Bryant will play, as he arrived late to Orlando and has been working on his conditioning.
