Tristan Vukcevic - Questionable to play Sunday Vukcevic (hand) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Charlotte.

Impact Vukcevic suffered a right hand contusion during the Wizards' win over the Pacers on Friday, which puts him in jeopardy of missing Sunday's contest. He has started in each of the Wizards' last two games due to the absence of Alex Sarr (hamstring), so Anthony Gill would be the top candidate to enter the Wizards' starting liineup if Vukcevic is unable to play.

Kyshawn George - Could return Sunday George (toe) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Hornets.

Impact George was held out of the Wizards' 131-118 win over the Pacers on Friday while managing a left toe sprain, but the second-year pro could be available for Washington on Sunday. He has averaged 15.4 points, 5.1 rebounds, 4.3 assists, 1.7 threes, 1.1 steals and 0.9 blocks over 27.1 minutes per game over his last 15 outings.

Tristan Vukcevic - Upgraded to standard deal Vukcevic (hand) agreed to a three-year, $9 million contract with the Wizards on Saturday, Shams Charania of ESPN reports.

Impact Vukcevic began the season on a one-year, two-way pact but will receive added security with this new contract. The deal includes a team option for the third season. Over 35 regular-season appearances (five starts) in 2025-26, the big man has averaged 7.9 points and 2.7 rebounds in 12.3 minutes per contest. He's currently dealing with a right hand contusion and should be considered questionable for Sunday's game against the Hornets until Washington provides an update on his status.

Bilal Coulibaly - Across-the-board performance Coulibaly accumulated 13 points (6-12 FG, 1-3 3Pt), three rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal over 22 minutes during Friday's 131-118 victory over the Pacers.

Impact Coulibaly chipped in across all major categories, despite the fact that his playing time was once again limited to fewer than 25 minutes. While his production has been adequate, there is just no way to predict who is going to step up for the Wizards on any given night. With that said, Coulibaly has at least been in the active rotation in 10 of the past 11 games, making him a borderline 12-team asset, for now.

Tre Johnson - Limited again Friday Johnson logged 14 points (6-11 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), one rebound, one assist, one block and one steal over 18 minutes during Friday's 131-118 win over the Pacers.

Impact Johnson continues to play limited minutes, despite maintaining a starting role. Since returning from an ankle injury that cost him six games, Johnson has averaged 11.3 points and 1.0 steals in 18.6 minutes per game across three appearances. Given the uncertainty regarding Washington's rotation, it's hard to trust anyone on the roster right now, and that includes Johnson.

Alondes Williams - Double-doubles in win Williams contributed 25 points (9-11 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 5-5 FT), 10 rebounds, four assists, two blocks and one steal in 29 minutes during Friday's 131-118 victory over the Pacers.

Impact Williams was fantastic in the win, recording a double-double in just his second appearance since signing a 10-day contract with the Wizards. In what could very well end up being the best performance of his career, Williams rewarded anyone that was lucky enough to have him on their roster. Looking ahead, it's hard to know what Washington is going to run out on any given night. Feel free to take a chance on him when the Wizards face the Hornets on Sunday, keeping in mind his playing time is by no means guaranteed.

Tristan Vukcevic - Won't return Friday Vukcevic won't return to Friday's game against the Pacers due to a hand contusion, Tony East of Forbes.com reports.

Impact Vukcevic will end his evening with 14 points (7-12 FG, 0-5 3Pt), eight rebounds, one assist, one steal, one block and one turnover across 20 minutes. For now, he should be considered questionable for Sunday's game against the Hornets.
