Wizards announce F Kyshawn George has a partially torn UCL in his left elbow
The Washington Wizards say forward Kyshawn George partially tore the UCL in his left elbow Monday against HoustonMARCH 5 • Associated Press
Kyshawn George - To be re-evaluated in three weeks The Wizards announced Wednesday that George has been diagnosed with a partial tear of the UCL in his left elbow and will be re-evaluated in three weeks.
Impact George sustained the injury in Monday's loss to Houston and won't return until late March at the very earliest. With the Wizards sitting at 16-45 on the season, it wouldn't be surprising to see the club exercise extreme caution with the second-year wing for the remainder of the season. With George sidelined, Will Riley, Jamir Watkins (ankle) and Justin Champagnie are candidates for increased minutes.

Jamir Watkins - Ruled out for Thursday Watkins (ankle) is out for Thursday's game against the Jazz.
Impact Watkins is set to miss a second straight game for the Wizards. With this news, guys like Jaden Hardy and Will Riley could become more involved for the Wizards.

Tristan Vukcevic - Won't play Thursday Vukcevic (thigh) is out for Thursday's game against the Jazz.
Impact Vukcevic will be sidelined for a third straight game Thursday. With this news, the Wizards may continue to give Julian Reese an extended look at center.

Anthony Gill - Questionable for Thursday Gill (illness) is questionable for Thursday's game against the Jazz.
Impact Gill remains day-to-day after missing the past two games for Washington. The Wizards will be very shorthanded yet again, so Gill could soak up a sizable amount of minutes if he's cleared.
MARCH 4 • ROTOWIRE
Alex Sarr - Remains out for Thursday Sarr (hamstring) is out for Thursday's game against the Jazz.
Impact Sarr hasn't take the court since Feb. 8 due to a right hamstring strain, and the last report on Feb. 26 was that he was considered week-to-week. For now, consider him doubtful for Sunday's game against the Pelicans.
