Chips in across board in win Beal finished with 21 points (8-14 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists and two blocks in 30 minutes in Monday's 127-106 win over the Spurs.

Impact Making his sixth consecutive appearance following a recent five-game absence due to a hamstring injury, Beal came through with his best fantasy performance during that stretch. Thanks largely to having already missed 20 games this season while seeing his minutes per game drop from 36.0 in 2021-22 to 32.8 so far in 2022-23, Beal hasn't lived up to draft-day expectations, but his outlook could be more promising moving forward now that the nagging hamstring issue looks to be behind him. Even though his averages in the counting categories are slightly down across the board from last season, Beal has been able to offset those declines to some degree by converting at a career-best rate from the field (51.2 percent).

Scores 17 points in win Beal provided 17 points (7-17 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), three rebounds and four assists in 30 minutes during Wednesday's 108-103 win over the Rockets.

Impact Beal had a rough shooting performance, but his contributions still lifted Washington to victory. He's been remarkably consistent of late, putting up at least 17 points in each of his four outings since returning from injury and shooting 47.5 percent from the field in that span.

Produces 17 points in win Beal contributed 17 points (7-14 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 1-1 FT), four rebounds and eight assists over 28 minutes during Saturday's 138-118 win over the Magic.

Impact Beal scored 13 of his 17 points in the second half on 5-of-8 shooting from the field, including 2-of-2 from beyond the arc. While he was relatively quiet with just four points in the first half, Beal did dish out four first-quarter assists to help Washington jump out to an early 11-point lead. His eight assists in the contest tied Delon Wright for the team lead and also matched a season high for the shooting guard. Beal is still looking for his first 20-point game since returning from the hamstring injury but is shooting a solid 56 percent from the field over the last two games.

Highly efficient in return Beal (hamstring) amassed 18 points (7-11 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 3-3 FT), four rebounds, four assists and one block over 29 minutes during Wednesday's 116-105 victory over the Knicks.

Impact Suiting up for the first time since Jan. 3 and only the second time since Dec. 27 due to the hamstring issue, Beal had his playing time managed carefully, but he was still able to come through with his efficient performance in his return. The Wizards may look to keep him below the 35-minute mark for another game or two, but Beal's encouraging outing in his return should give fantasy managers enough confidence to activate him ahead of Saturday's matchup with the Magic.

Wizards' Beal back from hamstring injury to start vs Knicks

Bradley Beal is back in the starting lineup for the Washington Wizards after missing five games with a left hamstring strain

JANUARY 19, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Will start but with limitations Wizards head coach Wes Unseld said Beal (hamstring) will start Wednesday's game against the Knicks, Kareem Copeland of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Beal, who has missed five straight and eight of the Wizards' past nine games with a hamstring injury, was officially cleared earlier Wednesday, and Unseld has now confirmed the guard's status in the starting lineup. However, the coach added that there will be "limitations" during Beal's return to action, though he didn't specify a minutes restriction. The superstar guard has struggled to stay on the court this season (24 appearances through 44 contests), but when available, he's been a quality producer, posting 22.0 points and 5.2 minutes in 33.6 minutes per game.

Officially cleared to play Beal (hamstring) is available for Wednesday's game versus the Knicks.

Impact Beal has been upgraded from questionable to available Wednesday, as a report earlier in the day indicated would likely be the case. The star guard will presumably replace Corey Kispert in the starting lineup, but fantasy managers shouldn't be surprised if Beal is on a minutes restriction, as he has missed eight of the team's last nine games.

Expected to return Wednesday Beal (hamstring) is expected to return to the Wizards' starting lineup Wednesday against the Knicks, Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN reports.

Impact Beal has missed five straight and eight of the Wizards' past nine games due to a hamstring injury and is officially listed as questionable for Wednesday. However, the superstar guard will be back in the mix against New York. Beal has struggled to stay on the floor this season (24 appearances through 44 contests), but when available, he's been a quality producer, posting 22.0 points and 5.2 assists in 33.6 minutes per game.

Questionable for Wednesday's game Beal (hamstring) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Knicks.

Impact Beal has missed five consecutive contests and eight of Washington's past nine games due to a hamstring injury. The superstar guard was reportedly practicing Sunday, so it appears he's on track to return soon. However, his official availability for Wednesday's game likely won't surface until closer to the 7:30 p.m. ET opening tip.

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.

Golden State visits Washington after Kuzma's 40-point game

Washington hosts the Golden State Warriors after Kyle Kuzma scored 40 points in the Washington Wizards' 112-108 loss to the New York Knicks

JANUARY 16, 2023 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

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.
