Corey Kispert News, Rumors, Updates - Washington Wizards

Modest production in large role Kispert ended with four points (2-7 FG, 0-4 3Pt), five rebounds, one assist and one block across 29 minutes during Monday's 125-112 loss to the Warriors.

Impact After averaging 15.7 points, 2.0 rebounds and 1.7 assists in 32.3 minutes over a three-game stretch, Kispert has totaled eight points (3-17 FG), eight rebounds and two assists in 60 minutes over his past two games. With Kyle Kuzma (groin) sidelined, there are more opportunities for Kispert, but Washington's youngsters -- Carlton Carrington, Bilal Coulibaly, Kyshawn George and Alex Sarr -- have stolen the show recently.

Stands out off bench Monday Kispert supplied 21 points (7-15 FG, 4-9 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one steal across 34 minutes during Monday's 121-119 win over the Hawks.

Impact Kispert was one of the Wizards' best players Monday despite coming off the bench, and he's emerging as more than just a reliable three-point shooter with an expanded role in the second unit. Kispert has scored in double digits in his last two games, and he could have a bigger role in the short-term picture in case Kyle Kuzma (groin) is forced to miss some time.

Impact Kispert missed Friday's preseason finale against the Knicks due to lower back stiffness, though it was likely a precaution. Fresh off a four-year, $54 million extension, Kispert is expected to be a key contributor for the Wizards during the 2024-25 season.

Washington Wizards sign Corey Kispert to a 4-year, $54 million extension

Corey Kispert and the Washington Wizards have agreed to terms on a four-year contract extension worth $54 million

OCTOBER 21, 2024 • ASSOCIATED PRESS

Inks four-year extension Kispert (back) and the Wizards agreed to a four-year, $54 million extension Monday, NBA writer Marc Stein reports.

Impact Kispert has shown improvements in each of his first three seasons in the NBA and is now under a very team-friendly deal for the foreseeable future. He has been a part-time starter to begin his career and is competing with second-year wing Bilal Coulibaly for a starting spot in Washington's backcourt this season. Kispert dealt with minor back stiffness to end the preseason, but he's expected to be fine for the regular season.

Dealing with back stiffness Kispert won't play in Friday's preseason finale against the Knicks due to lower back stiffness, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.

Impact Kispert is competing for the starting shooting guard spot with Bilal Coulibaly (finger), who's also sidelined. Both players will need to be monitored ahead of next Thursday's regular-season opener against the Celtics.

Shooting woes surface Monday Kispert finished with nine points (3-10 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 1-2 FT) and a block across 26 minutes in Monday's 131-92 preseason loss to the Nets.

Impact The Wizards struggled on offense Monday and Kispert couldn't escape those woes, and he didn't do much in other categories to deliver even some kind of fantasy upside. Kispert is slated to open the 2024-25 regular season as the backup shooting guard behind Bilal Coulibaly, though he could receive a few spot starts from time to time.

Receives start Monday Kispert will enter the starting lineup in Monday's preseason game against the Nets.

Impact Kyshawn George will slide back to the bench as the Wizards try out Kispert in the starting five. The 25-year-old will likely serve as the primary backup to Bilal Coulibaly (finger) at shooting guard this season, though it would not be a surprise if he enters the starting lineup if injury concerns arise.

Scores team-high 14 points in loss Kispert produced 14 points (5-9 FG, 2-5 3PT, 2-2 FT), two assists and one rebound in 20 minutes during Wednesday's preseason loss to the Knicks.

Impact Kispert remained on the bench with Bilal Coulibaly maintaining his spot in the starting lineup. Despite the bench role, Kispert led the Wizards with 14 points, providing a scoring punch in the second unit, much like he did last season. Although his upside is limited, Kispert is a player to monitor in standard formats, particularly as a streaming consideration for both points and threes.

Operates off bench in opener Kispert produced five points (1-3 FG, 1-1 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound and one assist in 19 minutes during Sunday's 125-98 preseason loss to the Wizards.

Impact With Malcolm Brogdon (hand) unavailable, Bilal Coulibaly started at shooting guard over Kispert, who's made 103 career starts in three seasons. Washington is expected to be at the bottom of the standings again, so it wouldn't be surprising if Coulibaly continued to see developmental minutes over Kispert once the regular season begins.

Goes for 25 points Tuesday Kispert posted 25 points (9-17 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and five assists over 36 minutes during Tuesday's 130-121 loss to Minnesota.

Impact Kispert earned a regular starting role on March 10 and never looked back, establishing himself as a reliable scoring alternative on a rebuilding Wizards team. Kispert has scored in double digits in each of his last 12 contests, a span in which he's averaging 18.4 points per game while shooting an impressive 43.2 percent from three-point range. He should have decent fantasy upside in Washington's final two games of the campaign, as he's also averaging 13.3 shots per game in that 12-game stretch.
