KENTAVIOUS CALDWELL-POPE NEWS

Available Saturday Caldwell-Pope (ankle) is available for Saturday's game against the Lakers, Andrew Gillis of NBC Sports Washington reports.

Impact Caldwell-Pope came into Saturday nursing a left ankle sprain, but he's officially good to go for Saturday's tilt with the Lakers. The 28-year-old is averaging 12.5 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.1 steals in 30.1 minutes per game this season.

Questionable Saturday Caldwell-Pope is questionable for Saturday's game against the Lakers due to a left ankle sprain.

Impact Caldwell-Pope tweaked his ankle in Friday's loss to the Knicks, and he'll land on the injury report ahead of the second half of the back-to-back set. If he's unavailable against the Lakers, Deni Avdija and Tomas Satoransky should see additional usage.

Goes for 19 points in loss Caldwell-Pope produced 19 points (8-14 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), two rebounds, one assist and two steals over 35 minutes during Monday's 126-112 loss to the Warriors.

Impact Caldwell-Pope has been playing well of late and his scoring numbers have experienced an uptick, as he has registered 15 or more points in six of his last seven contests. He's also putting up these numbers with eye-popping efficiency, as he's made 48.8 percent of his treys during that seven-game span.

Leads Washington in scoring Caldwell-Pope totaled 26 points (6-16 FG, 5-10 3Pt, 9-9 FT), four rebounds, five assists and one steal over 32 minutes during Saturday's 127-118 loss to Portland.

Impact Caldwell-Pope played poorly in Friday's loss to the Lakers, producing just four points on 1-for-6 shooting from the field. However, he bounced back in the second game of the back-to-back set, leading the Wizards in scoring thanks largely to a 5-for-10 shooting effort from three-point range. The loss of Bradley Beal (wrist) for the season has resulted in more offensive opportunities for Caldwell-Pope, and the veteran has responded by recording double-digit points in 11 of his past 13 games.

Supplies 19 points in win Caldwell-Pope finished with 19 points (5-13 FG, 3-9 3Pt, 6-7 FT), five assists, two rebounds and one steal across 33 minutes in Sunday's 133-123 win over the Pacers.

Impact The addition of Kristaps Porzingis (knee) to the lineup Sunday in his Wizards debut didn't seem to have too much of an affect on Caldwell-Pope, who put up double-digit shot attempts for the fifth game in a row. Even with Porzingis now part of the mix, the Wizards are still left without any real threats on offense outside of Kyle Kuzma, so Caldwell-Pope should continue to see plenty of touches as Washington's No. 3 option. Over his last five games, Caldwell-Pope is averaging 19.8 points, 4.0 assists, 3.2 three-pointers, 2.2 rebounds and 0.8 steals in 34.2 minutes per contest. Those numbers would make him worthy of rostering in most leagues, though he's due for a downturn to some degree after converting 50.8 percent of his field goals and 51.6 percent of his three-pointers during that five-game stretch.

Season-high scoring total in loss Caldwell-Pope finished Friday's 117-114 loss to the Hawks with 28 points (10-12 FG, 6-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds and five assists in 30 minutes.

Impact Caldwell-Pope had plenty of success from the floor during Friday's narrow loss, as he converted 83.3 percent of his field-goal attempts while draining each of his six attempts from beyond the arc. While he's shown some signs of inconsistency this season, he's now topped 20 points in three of his last six appearances. Across that span, he's averaged 19.0 points, 3.0 assists and 2.8 rebounds in 32.8 minutes per game.

Scores 24 points in loss Caldwell-Pope closed Friday's 157-153 double-overtime loss to the Spurs with 24 points (7-14 FG, 4-10 3Pt, 6-6 FT), one rebound, four assists and two steals over 42 minutes.

Impact Caldwell-Pope scored 20-plus points for the second time over his last three contests and for just the sixth time during the campaign. On the season, the veteran wing is averaging 11.8 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.7 assists and 1.1 steals in 29.6 minutes per game, but his production hasn't been consistent. Across 10 contests in February, Caldwell-Pope has scored 20-plus points twice, but he's also failed to crack double figures four times during that stretch.

Another quality performance Caldwell-Pope ended Wednesday's 113-108 loss to the Pacers with 27 points (9-18 FG, 5-8 3Pt, 4-4 FT), three rebounds, three steals and one assist across 34 minutes.

Impact En route to his fourth such game of the season, Caldwell-Pope hit the 20-point mark for the first time in more than a month. With Bradley Beal (wrist) out for the season, Kyle Kuzma is the Wizards' clear go-to man on offense, but Caldwell-Pope should see expanded touches as a secondary or tertiary option the rest of the way.
