BRADLEY BEAL NEWS

Resuming basketball activities Beal (hamstring) was cleared to resume full basketball activities Thursday, and his timetable for a return will be based on his progression.

Impact A strained left hamstring has kept Beal out for six of the past seven games, leaving Corey Kispert to start at shooting guard. It seems highly unlikely that Beal will be available Friday against the Knicks, so fantasy managers should optimistically hope for a return Monday against the Warriors. Still, given that he already re-injured himself once while attempting to return from the injury, the organization may be more cautious this time. Beal has appeared in just 24 games this season, averaging 22.9 points, 5.2 assists, 3.5 rebounds and 1.0 steals in 33.6 minutes.

Impact Beal reinjured his hamstring in Tuesday's 123-113 loss to the Bucks, after he had missed the previous three games. Corey Kispert opened the second half of Tuesday's game with the top unit and could step in as a starter on the wing for the duration of Beal's absence. In addition to Kispert, Deni Avdija and Will Barton may also be beneficiaries from a playing-time perspective.

Impact After missing each of the Wizards' previous three games due to a sore left hamstring, Beal was cleared to play Tuesday, but he lasted less than two quarters before succumbing to yet another setback. Though the Wizards haven't revealed the severity of the issue, the fact that Beal suffered a setback with the hamstring issue so soon after returning to action means that he'll most likely miss time. Corey Kispert joined the top unit to begin the second half and could start Friday's game in Oklahoma City in the likely event Beal can't go.

Questionable to return Wednesday Beal (hamstring) is questionable to return to Wednesday's game against Milwaukee.

Impact Beal was ultimately cleared to play in Wednesday's contest despite nursing a sore left hamstring. After posting eight points (3-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), four assists, two steals and one rebound in 13 minutes, Beal may find himself on the sidelines for the rest of the matchup. If that's indeed the case, the guard will presumably be deemed day-to-day until further information regarding his hamstring surfaces.

Ruled out Sunday Beal (hamstring) has been ruled out of Sunday's game against the Bucks.

Impact The Wizards waited on Beal until the very last minute, but in the end, the star shooting guard will miss a third straight contest with a sore left hamstring. Outside of the fact that Beal's absence will hurt Washington offensively, Corey Kispert should remain in the starting five as his replacement. Beal's next chance to play will come Tuesday at Milwaukee.

Impact Beal has missed the last two games due to a sore left hamstring, but he'll be in the mix to return against Milwaukee. If he remains out, Corey Kispert will likely continue to garner a starting role for Washington.

Absent Friday Beal (hamstring) will not take the floor for Friday's game against the Magic, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

Impact Beal will miss a second consecutive contest with left hamstring soreness. However, the Wizards may not need him Friday, considering the Magic have just eight players available.

DECEMBER 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable for Friday Beal (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Friday's game versus the Magic.

Impact Beal warmed up ahead of Wednesday's game before being ruled out, so it would seem the star guard has a decent chance to retake the floor Friday. The team will make an official ruling on Beal's status at some point leading up to the 7:00 PM ET tipoff, with Corey Kispert likely starting in his place if he can't play.

Officially ruled out Wednesday Beal (hamstring) will not play Wednesday versus the Suns, Ava Wallace of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Per Wallace, Beal didn't look particularly mobile while testing out the hamstring in warmups, but it's at least a good sign that he gave it a try before taking the night off. He could be back on the floor as soon as Friday in Orlando, but Corey Kispert will replace him in the starting five Wednesday.

DECEMBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Conflicting reports on status Head coach Wes Unseld labeled Beal (hamstring) a game-time decision ahead of Wednesday's clash with the Suns, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.

Impact Unseld's comments butt heads with a report from Shams Charania of The Athletic earlier in the day suggesting Beal would miss Wednesday's tilt. He's likely a doubtful lean leading up to the opening tip, but it will be worth keeping tabs on his status as the 7 PM ET opening tip draws near.

DECEMBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE

Out Wednesday, deemed day-to-day Beal (hamstring) won't play in Wednesday's game versus the Suns and will be day-to-day after receiving an MRI, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.

Impact Beal is out Wednesday after suffering a left hamstring injury in Tuesday's game against the 76ers. However, there is optimism that he will be available for Friday's matchup with Orlando. Deni Avdija, Corey Kispert and Will Barton are all candidates to see extended minutes in Beal's absence.
