Jamir Watkins - Unlikely to play Sunday Watkins (knee) isn't expected to play in Sunday's Summer League game versus Sacramento, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

Impact Watkins injured his knee in Thursday's 92-88 win over Utah. He is considered day-to-day, so his next opportunity to suit up after Sunday's meeting with the Kings will come Tuesday versus Chicago. Watkins, who agreed to a two-way contract with Washington on July 1, appeared in 50 regular-season games for the Wizards during the 2025-26 campaign. While the 25-year-old wasn't a routine provider for the club, he showed some flashes of promise by averaging 11.9 points, 4.0 rebounds, 1.9 assists, 0.7 blocks and 0.6 steals across 31.1 minutes in seven starts.

Jessica Shepard - Massive double-double in win Shepard supplied 20 points (7-9 FG, 6-8 FT), 17 rebounds, three assists and one steal across 40 minutes in Friday's 108-95 win over Toronto.

Impact Shepard played the entirety of Friday's contest en route to her second consecutive 20-plus-point performance. The 29-year-old center also led all players in rebounds, stuffing the stat sheet once again. She's racked up a triple-double and three double-doubles over her last six appearances, scoring 14 or more points in all but one of those outings.

Arike Ogunbowale - Strikes for 20 points in victory Ogunbowale generated 20 points (6-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 7-7 FT), seven assists and three rebounds across 30 minutes in Friday's 108-95 win over the Tempo.

Impact Ogunbowale turned in an efficient performance from the floor and the charity stripe en route to her first 20-plus-point performance since June 17. The veteran guard had scored in single digits in five of her previous six contests entering Friday, shooting just 23.6 percent from the field during that span. She also dished out a team-high seven assists Friday, matching her season-high mark.

Paige Bueckers - Drops 34 points in win Bueckers recorded 34 points (13-22 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 6-6 FT), six rebounds, six assists and two steals across 38 minutes in Friday's 108-95 win over the Tempo.

Impact Bueckers played most of Friday's contest and delivered an efficient performance en route to a game-high-tying 34 points. The star guard set a new season-high mark in scoring and has now reached the 30-point threshold in two of her 22 regular-season appearances this year. She was also second on the team in rebounds and assists, finishing with at least 20 points, five rebounds and five assists for the fourth time this season.
