Available, starting Monday Kuzma (shoulder) is available for Monday's game against the Hornets.
Impact Kuzma added to the injury report for Monday's game shortly before tipoff, but he'll be able to play through his sore left shoulder against Charlotte. He's averaging 16.9 points and 7.5 rebounds in 32.1 minutes per game to begin the regular season.

Questionable Monday Kuzma is questionable for Monday's game against Charlotte due to left shoulder soreness.
Impact Kuzma was a late addition to Monday's injury report, but he's apparently dealing with a shoulder issue after he logged 12 points, 11 rebounds, two assists and a block in 34 minutes during Sunday's loss to Memphis. If he's unavailable, Rui Hachimura and Deni Avdija would likely handle increased roles in the frontcourt.

Logs second double-double Kuzma produced 12 points (5-14 FG, 2-9 3Pt), 11 rebounds, two assists and one block in 34 minutes during Sunday's 103-97 loss to the Grizzlies.
Impact Kuzma didn't have a great shooting night, especially from deep, but he made up for it with his effort on the glass. He's finished with 12 or more points in each of his last three matchups and has also helped fantasy managers with solid rebound and assist numbers over that brief stretch.

Struggles from field in loss Kuzma ended with 18 points (7-19 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 1-1 FT), nine rebounds, three assists and one steal over 37 minutes during Friday's 127-117 loss to the Pacers.
Impact Kuzma has been Washington's best scoring threat to begin the season, but such wasn't the case Friday and ended with more field goal attempts (19) than points (18), while also being just the second game in which he couldn't reach the 20-point plateau. Kuzma's numbers will eventually regress as the season progresses and even if that's the case, he should still be treated as the Wizards' second-best scoring threat behind Bradley Beal. Through five games, he's averaging 20.4 points per game.

Leads Wizards in scoring once again Kuzma recorded 25 points (9-17 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 7-8 FT), six rebounds, one assist and one block across 27 minutes during Tuesday's 120-99 win over the Pistons.
Impact Kuzma is enjoying an excellent start to the season and the numbers back that up, as he has led the Wizards in scoring in three of their four games while surpassing the 20-point mark in all but one game as well. He seems to be finally coming into his own, and while some regression is expected as the season progresses, there's no question he has the hottest hand on the Washington roster right now. Through four games, Kuzma has averaged 21.0 points per game.

Enjoying strong start Kuzma chipped in 26 points (8-16 FG, 4-8 3Pt, 6-7 FT), six rebounds and two assists across 34 minutes during Friday's 102-100 victory over the Bulls.
Impact Perhaps surprisingly, Kuzma has led the Wizards in scoring in the first two games of the campaign and has looked excellent while also showing decent levels of efficiency. It's only been two games and that's a small sample size to draw any long-term conclusions, but the fact that he's averaging 24.0 points per game while shooting 45.7 percent from the field and 38.9 percent from three-point range are encouraging figures.

Collects 13 rebounds in win Kuzma finished with 22 points (8-19 FG, 3-10 3Pt, 3-5 FT), 13 rebounds, two assists and two blocks over 34 minutes during Wednesday's win over the Pacers.
Impact Kuzma grabbed four rebounds in the first quarter while also knocking down three of five shots from the field, including two three-pointers off assists from Bradley Beal. The Wizards' small forward added another 11 points in the second half on 5-of-11 shooting while also flashing his defensive skills with two blocks and five fourth-quarter rebounds. Kuzma and Beal will look to lead the Wizards to their second consecutive win to open the season during Friday's home tilt against the Bulls.
