Impact Evaluations of Beal's wrist remain ongoing more than a week after the Wizards initially shut him down with the injury. He'll be sidelined for a fifth straight game Thursday, and even if the Wizards are able to definitely rule out surgery for Beal, his absence will likely be extended into next week, if not through the All-Star break. Aaron Holiday has started in place of Beal for the past four games but hasn't offered much from a fantasy perspective with averages of 7.5 points, 2.5 assists, 1.8 rebounds and 1.3 steals in 21.8 minutes.
