Corey Kispert's hot shooting is not enough for the sinking Wizards Kispert hit a career-high nine three-pointers, but Washington blew a double-digit lead to the young Orlando Magic on Friday.
Erupts for 27 points Kispert amassed 27 points (9-14 FG, 9-14 3Pt) and three rebounds over 42 minutes during Friday's 116-109 loss to the Magic.
Impact Kispert's 27 points mark a new career best, and the same is true for his nine makes from three-point range. He ended up just one three-pointer away from the Wizards' single game record. The three highest scoring games in Kispert's career have come in March, and he's doing a wonderful job picking up the slack offensively with the Wizards missing several key players.

Erupts for 26 points Kispert ended Friday's 136-124 win over San Antonio with 26 points (9-14 FG, 6-9 3Pt, 2-5 FT), five rebounds, two assists and one block over 36 minutes.
Impact Bradley Beal has a "mild" left knee sprain and is day-to-day, but with Washington sitting in 12th place in the Eastern Conference, the Wizards may proceed with caution. Kispert had the greenest of lights Friday night as he set a new career-high for points, and he's cleared 30 minutes in six of his last seven games. His fantasy trajectory is pointing straight up.

Struggles with shot in start Kispert ended with nine points (3-10 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds and two assists over 31 minutes during Wednesday's 118-104 loss to the Nuggets.
Impact Kispert has started four of the last five games, partially due to Bradley Beal (knee) and Kyle Kuzma (ankle) missing time. The second-year guard had another opportunity, but he couldn't knock down shots, as he tied his season high with six missed threes. Kispert also failed to help in other categories and finished with a pedestrian box score. Even if Beal and Kuzma miss more time, Kispert will be tough to trust as a streaming option.

Will start against Kings Kispert will start Saturday's game against the Kings, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.
Impact Head coach Wes Unseld confirmed Kispert's return to the starting unit in place of the injured Kristaps Porzingis (illness). He's averaging 10.0 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.4 assists per game across 33 starts this season.

Coming off bench Friday Kispert will come off the bench Friday against the Cavaliers.
Impact Kispert notched 16 points during Tuesday's game against the Pistons, but he will head back to the bench with Kyle Kuzma in the starting lineup following a one-game absence. Kispert is averaging 9.6 points, 2.3 rebounds and 0.9 assists per game when coming off the bench this season.

Reaches double figures in start Kispert racked up 16 points (6-14 FG, 2-8 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds and one steal across 34 minutes during Tuesday's 117-97 victory over the Pistons.
Impact Kispert got the start in place of the injured Kyle Kuzma (knee), finishing as one of three Wizards players with 15 or more points. Kispert has tallied at least 15 points on 10 occasions this season, including in two straight outings.

Puts up season-high 25 points Kispert chipped in 25 points (9-13 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds and one assist across 33 minutes during Sunday's 112-93 loss to the 76ers.
Impact Though he came off the bench, Kispert led all Wizards players in scoring and made field goals, with head coach Wes Unseld Jr. electing to hand him more minutes than usual while he sported the hot hand. Considering Kispert had posted more modest averages of 11.0 points, 2.7 three-pointers, 2.5 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 30.2 minutes over his previous six outings, fantasy managers outside of deep leagues are probably fine ignoring the second-year wing's solid performance Sunday.

Lights out in win Kispert recorded 16 points (6-7 FG, 4-5 3Pt), two rebounds and one assist across 32 minutes during Tuesday's 119-117 win over the Pistons.
Impact Kispert missed just one shot from the field en route to his highest scoring output since Jan. 9 and notched his fourth straight game in double figures. During that stretch, the Gonzaga product is averaging 12.3 points while shooting 72.0 percent from the field and 62.0 percent from deep. While Kispert's recent offensive outburst has been nice, his incredible shooting percentages suggest regression is coming soon.

Perfect from perimeter in loss Kispert racked up 12 points (4-4 FG, 4-4 3Pt), four rebounds and one assist across 35 minutes during Saturday's 116-109 overtime loss to the Raptors.
Impact Kispert went a perfect 4-of-4 from the three-point line, logging a few extra minutes due to an illness to Deni Avdija. While this was a solid night for anyone who streamed him in, Kispert's uptick is unlikely to last more than possibly this game. Given Avdija is only dealing with an illness, he could very well return against the Bucks on Sunday.

Moves to bench Kispert isn't in the starting lineup for Tuesday's game versus Portland, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.
Impact Kispert will be replaced by Kyle Kuzma in the starting five Tuesday. The Gonzaga product is averaging 7.6 points and 1.8 rebounds in 26.8 minutes during his last five appearances.

Returns to starting lineup Kispert is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Pacers.
Impact Kispert came off the bench Wednesday against the Hornets and only recorded four points across 19 minutes in the Wizards' win, but now he'll get a chance to redeem himself after back-to-back subpar performances. Kispert is averaging 9.9 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.5 assists across 30.6 minutes per game in his 30 starts this season.

Moves to bench Kispert isn't in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game versus Charlotte, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.
Impact Kispert will be replaced by Bradley Beal in the starting five Wednesday. The second-year guard has started in 14 of the Wizards' last 20 games and is averaging 9.8 points, 3.1 rebounds and 1.1 assists in 26.8 minutes over that span.

Struggles with shot versus Cavs Kispert supplied two points (1-7 FG, 0-5 3Pt), one rebound and one assist over 26 minutes during Monday's 114-91 loss to the Cavaliers.
Impact Kispert's main asset from a fantasy perspective is his three-point shooting, so he's not much of a help when he fails to knock down any of his attempts like he did Monday. The effort marks his lowest output since he played just 11 minutes versus Oklahoma City on Nov. 11, and he supplemented it with just one board and one assist. Kispert's shot volume and minutes were on par, and the Wizards struggled to score on the whole, so this isn't a worrisome outcome for him moving forward and should be primarily viewed as a blip on the radar.
