Jordan Goodwin - Slides to second unit Goodwin will come off the bench for Monday's matchup with the Warriors, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

Impact Goodwin will return to the second unit Monday after receiving a spot start in place of Monte Morris (hamstring) last time out. With Morris back and Bradley Beal (hamstring) still sidelined, Goodwin should continue to see significant action off the bench.

Bradley Beal - Will miss fifth straight Beal (hamstring) won't play in Monday's game against the Warriors.

Impact Beal will be missing his fifth consecutive game Monday and now has just six appearances under his belt since Dec. 4. The Wizards are continuing to handle his status on a game-to-game basis, so the hope is that he can get back on the floor sometime this week. Washington is off Tuesday before facing the Knicks at Madison Square Garden on Wednesday.

Kyle Kuzma, in the all-star conversation, is learning on the fly Kuzma likes that he has room to grow in D.C. That's why he wouldn't rule out a return to the Wizards.

Vernon Carey Jr. - Back to G League Carey (quadriceps) won't be available for Monday's game against the Warriors after being assigned to the G League.

Impact Carey was unavailable the past few games for the Wizards due to a bruised quad, but it appears he's past the injury. The 21-year-old still won't be available for Washington as he heads to the G League, though he's now at least healthy.

JANUARY 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Johnny Davis - Clear of injury report Davis (hip) isn't listed on the injury report for Monday's game against the Warriors.

Impact Davis was unavailable the past two games due to a hip strain, but he's off the injury report ahead of Monday's contest. The rookie first-round pick has played in only 10 NBA contests this season with minimal playing time.

JANUARY 15, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Monte Morris - Will play Monday Morris (hamstring) will be available for Monday's matchup against Golden State, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

Impact Morris was sidelined for Washington's previous contest due to hamstring soreness, but the point guard has been cleared to return Monday and will presumably be back in the starting lineup. The 2017 second-round pick has started all 37 of his appearances this season and is averaging 10.1 points, 5.3 assists (career high) and 3.3 rebounds in 28.5 minutes.

Bradley Beal - Questionable Monday Wizards head coach Wes Unseld Jr. said Beal (hamstring) is questionable for Monday's game against the Warriors, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

Impact According to Ava Wallace of The Washington Post, Beal participated in Sunday's practice, but because he's still ramping back up to 100 percent after missing seven of the past eight games with a left hamstring strain, the Wizards are giving him a designation ahead of Monday's contest. Beal will presumably be reassessed during warmups Monday before the Wizards decide on his status ahead of the 3 p.m. ET opening tip.

Monte Morris - Targeting Monday return Morris (hamstring) hopes to rejoin the lineup Monday against the Warriors, Neil Dalal of Hoop District reports.

Impact Dalal notes that the team will likely take precautions to avoid further setbacks, but Morris is clearly feeling pretty well a couple of days ahead of the contest. The injury report released by the team Sunday should supply a clearer picture of his chances to take the floor Monday.

Kristaps Porzingis - Subpar effort in return Porzingis registered 21 points (6-19 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 5-6 FT), four rebounds and one assist over 35 minutes during Friday's 112-108 loss to the Knicks.

Impact Porzingis ended with 21 points but offered very little else in a rusty performance. Of course, he gets a pass here, given how strong he has been thus far this season. He is currently putting up top-20 value in 12-team formats, and more importantly, has missed only four games. Managers should be feeling pretty good about drafting him, and given his track record, he should look to bounce back against the Warriors on Monday.

JANUARY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Kyle Kuzma - Explodes for season-high 40 points Kuzma ended with 40 points (14-27 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 8-9 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists and one block across 40 minutes during Friday's 112-108 loss to the Knicks.

Impact Kuzma was terrific in the loss, pouring in a season-high 40 points while adding decent peripheral numbers. Despite averaging a career-high 21.7 points per game this season, Kuzma sits outside the top 100 in standard formats, thanks largely to the fact he plays no defense and typically delivers mediocre percentages. He is a clear must-roster player, but for anyone punting points, he should not be a prime target.

Kyle Kuzma stays hot, but not hot enough to lift Wizards past Knicks The Wizards' forward scores 40 but doesn't get enough help in a 112-108 home loss to New York.

JANUARY 14, 2023 • WASHINGTONPOST.COM

Daniel Gafford - Just 17 minutes in return Gafford supplied six points (1-1 FG, 4-4 FT), six rebounds and one block over 17 minutes during Friday's 112-108 loss to New York.

Impact Gafford lasted only 17 minutes in the loss, turning in an ordinary fantasy line. He was on the wrong end of another spectacular dunk, this time at the hands of Julius Randle. Despite no word of an injury, Gafford did appear a little shaken after the impact, perhaps contributing to his low minutes. He remains a must-hold player, but fantasy managers will want to keep an eye on the injury report ahead of Monday's game against the Warriors.

JANUARY 14, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Jordan Goodwin - Struggles in spot start Friday Goodwin logged five points (2-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt), five rebounds, three assists, one block and one steal in 26 minutes during Friday's 112-108 loss to the Knicks.

Impact Goodwin was inserted into the starting lineup Friday, replacing Monte Morris, who was ruled out due to a hamstring issue. Despite the increase in role, Goodwin failed to produce, ending the night with a team-worst minus-20 plus/minus. There is no word on whether Morris will miss additional time, but if that is the case, Goodwin could very well stick in the opening unit. With that said, managers may be better off targeting Delon Wright, who profiles as a better per-minute option thanks to his ability to contribute across multiple categories.
