Jamir Watkins - Won't play Saturday Watkins (illness) has been ruled out for Saturday's game in Memphis.

Impact Watkins' minutes will likely be divvied up amongst Justin Champagnie, Tre Johnson and Bub Carrington. Watkins' next chance to play will come Sunday versus San Antonio.

Cam Whitmore - Unavailable Saturday Whitmore (shoulder) will not play Saturday against the Grizzlies.

Impact Whitmore wasn't able to shake his questionable tag for this contest. His next chance to play comes Sunday against the Spurs.

Jamir Watkins - Under the weather Watkins (illness) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Grizzlies.

Impact Watkins is in jeopardy of missing Saturday's road tilt while battling an illness. He has averaged 17.0 minutes per game over the Wizards' last five games, so his absence would lead to more minutes being available for Justin Champagnie, Tre Johnson and Bub Carrington.

Cam Whitmore - Deemed questionable Whitmore is questionable for Saturday's game against Memphis due to right shoulder soreness.

Impact Whitmore is at risk of missing Saturday's contest due to a shoulder injury. If available, Whitmore could see an expanded role because of the absences of Bilal Coulibaly (ankle) and Corey Kispert (thumb). In 21 games this season, Whitmore is averaging 9.2 points and 2.8 rebounds across 16.9 minutes.

Malaki Branham - Good to go Branham has been cleared to play in Saturday's game against Memphis.

Impact Branham will return from a three-game absence due to a sprained thumb. With Bilal Coulibaly (ankle) and Corey Kispert (thumb) out, Branham could see considerable run off the bench against the Grizzlies.

Bilal Coulibaly - Won't play Saturday Coulibaly has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Grizzlies due to a sprained left ankle.

Impact Coulibaly will take a seat for the opening leg of a back-to-back set due to a sprained left ankle. The 21-year-old's absence should mean more opportunities for Justin Champagnie and Will Riley. It's unclear if Coulibaly will be back for Sunday's matchup with the Spurs.

Khris Middleton - Good to go vs. Memphis Middleton (knee) is available for Saturday's game against the Grizzlies.

Impact Middleton has been cleared to return from a four-game absence due to a right knee contusion. He could be inserted back into the starting lineup for Saturday's game since Bilal Coulibaly (ankle) has been ruled out. Middleton is averaging 10.4 points, 4.2 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 0.9 threes over 25.8 minutes per game this season.

Corey Kispert - Remains out indefinitely Kispert (thumb) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Grizzlies.

Impact Kispert hasn't played since Nov. 25 due to a fractured right thumb and remains without a clear timetable for a return. The 26-year-old swingman can be considered week-to-week until the Wizards provide an update on his recovery.

Malaki Branham - Questionable with thumb sprain Branham is questionable for Saturday's game against the Grizzlies due to a sprained right thumb.

Impact Branham is trying to avoid missing a fourth consecutive game with the injury. If the swingman doesn't play, Tre Johnson should see a slight bump in minutes Saturday for some deep-league streaming appeal.

Khris Middleton - Questionable for Saturday Middleton (knee) is questionable for Saturday's game in Memphis.

Impact Middleton has missed the past four games for the Wizards, and with Saturday's game coming as the first of an away-home, back-to-back set, Middleton feels a little closer to doubtful. If he's out again, Justin Champagnie and Will Riley will continue to pick up the slack.

Alex Sarr - Strong numbers in limited minutes Sarr (adductor) registered 18 points (8-18 FG, 2-4 3Pt), four rebounds, three assists and one block across 24 minutes Thursday in the Wizards' 119-94 loss to the Spurs.

Impact Aside from a 6-for-14 showing from two-point range, Sarr generally performed well in his return from a right adductor strain, which had kept him out for the Wizards' last six games. Sarr and Bilal Coulibaly (23 minutes) -- who had missed the previous four contests with an oblique injury -- saw far less playing time than the rest of the Wizards' starters, but both should see their minutes restrictions lifted after getting another game or two under their belt. The Wizards have a Saturday/Sunday back-to-back set coming up against the Grizzlies and Spurs, respectively, so Sarr could be a candidate to sit out one of those games for maintenance purposes.
