Johnny Davis - Remains out WednesdayDavis (hip) is out for Wednesday's game versus Chicago.
ImpactDavis will miss another game due to a hip injury. The rookie guard's next chance to suit up is Friday's matchup with the Knicks. However, Davis' return timetable is uncertain.

Corey Kispert - Questionable WednesdayKispert is questionable for Wednesday's matchup against the Bulls due to lower back soreness.
ImpactIf available, Kispert should continue to start in Bradley Beal's (hamstring) absence. If Kispert is sidelined, more minutes should open up for Deni Avdija, Will Barton and Jordan Goodwin.

Herbert Jones - Doubtful to suit up WednesdayJones (back) is officially doubtful for Wednesday's game versus the Celtics.
ImpactJones was unable to rejoin the action after departing early Monday with a back contusion. That same issue will likely keep him sidelined for at least one more game, potentially opening a spot in the starting five for Dyson Daniels.

Brandon Ingram - Still not practicingPelicans head coach Willie Green said Ingram (toe) didn't practice Tuesday, Christian Clark of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
ImpactThough Ingram previously said that he expected to play at some point during the Pelicans' five-game road swing that began last Saturday in Dallas, he sat out the first two contests of the trip and appears on track to miss another one Wednesday in Boston. If Ingram can practice in some capacity Thursday, he might have a chance at being available Friday in Detroit. Given that he hasn't played since Nov. 25 due to a left big toe sprain, Ingram will presumably be on a minutes restriction if he's able to play Friday and/or in the final game of the road trip Monday in Cleveland.

Daniel Gafford - Questionable WednesdayGafford (ankle) is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bulls, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.
ImpactGafford was a partial participant in Tuesday's practice. Kristaps Porzingis (ribs) is also questionable, so the Wizards could be shorthanded in the frontcourt against Chicago. If one or both are out, more minutes could be in store for Rui Hachimura, Taj Gibson and Deni Avdija.

Kristaps Porzingis - Questionable WednesdayPorzingis is questionable for Wednesday's game against the Bulls due to sore ribs, Josh Robbins of The Athletic reports.
ImpactPorzingis has missed just four games this season. He's appeared in eight straight games, with averages of 20.5 points, 9.5 rebounds, 1.6 blocks, 1.4 assists and 1.0 steals during this stretch. If he misses Wednesday's game, more minutes could be in store for Rui Hachimura and Daniel Gafford (ankle).

Daniel Gafford - Getting ankle checked TuesdayWizards head coach Wes Unseld Jr. said Gafford will be re-evaluated Tuesday after suffering a right ankle sprain late in Monday's 132-112 loss to the Pelicans, Ava Wallace of The W...
ImpactAs a result of the injury, Gafford missed the final 4:47 of Monday's contest and finished the night with 13 points (5-6 FG, 3-4 FT), four rebounds and two assists. The upcoming evaluation will shed more light on the extent of the injury, but for now, the fourth-year big man should be viewed as questionable for Wednesday's matchup with the Bulls. If Gafford is unable to play against his former team, the Wizards could lean more heavily on Kristaps Porzingis at center to free up more minutes at forward for the likes of Deni Avdija, Rui Hachimura and Will Barton.
